This is the motivation behind the development of the free Go Trinbago travel App.
This mobile app is free to download for both Android and iOS users. It is part of LIME 365 marketing campaign designed to showcase events and festivals to both international and local audiences. This new campaign will be interactive and easy to use. It is available for Android 4.0.3 at Go Trinbago App and iOS at Go Trinbago App.
A call was made for members of the public both at home and abroad to download the Go Trinbago App and help showcase and experience the culture, food and lifestyle that is unique to Trinidad and Tobago.
After installing the app you will notice that it will download a data packet. This allows you to use it both online and offline.
