Kwikpoint Testimonials
I carried a copy of Kwikpoint with me at all times in Leningrad and Moscow. When I used Kwikpoint, it was clear that everyone, American and Russian alike, not only knew what the translator was for but how to use it.
Julie Schneider

I gave my father the International Travel pack for Father's Day. My parents live in a neighborhood where there are new homes being built and, thus, a lot of construction going on. Mr. Teran, Sr. noticed a gas leak one afternoon. The construction workers did not speak much English and so he used his Kwikpoint translator to communicate the problem to them. They were able to understand and to stop the gas leak immediately.
Hunter Teran
I've used several of the Kwikpoint translators in my travels around the world. They work regardless of language or literacy. They even work extremely well with the deaf if you (or they) are unable to sign. From ordering food with consideration of my food allergies to moving my hotel room because the A/C sounded like a jet plane.
"With 39 years in the travel industry and as president of ASTA, the largest travel trade association in the country, I have seen a lot of aids for travelers. I am so impressed by Kwikpoint that I have asked ASTA to include it in their AMSI program of travel."
