When I travel, my iPhone 6 Plus is my camera - I don't even bother to take a separate digital camera. The camera on my iPhone 6 Plus takes amazing photos.
The Photos App on my iPhone (and iPad) provides some great options for viewing my photos. I can organise them into albums, or use the Photo Library view that allows me to see the photos grouped into Years, Collections and Moments.
The Photos App on my iPhone (and iPad) provides some great options for viewing my photos. I can organise them into albums, or use the Photo Library view that allows me to see the photos grouped into Years, Collections and Moments.
But the feature that I think is my favourite in the Photos app (especially when looking at the photos of a trip) is that which allows me to view on a map the photos that I have taken - even allowing me to zoom in and out to see more or less details of the map and the various locations at which I have taken photos.
This provides a wonderful travel log of holiday snaps.
By viewing the photos taken for a particular 'Moment', you can see all the places that you visited on the particular day that the 'Moment' represents.
For example, here is my Photos app screen of a 'Moment' in Rome and the locations that were visited on that day.

If I want to see more detail of where photos were taken, I can 'zoom in' and see the the map in more detail and the photos that go with each of those locations.

To view the photos taken at a particular location (regardless of how far you have zoomed in or out on the map), just tap on the photo thumbnail to view larger thumbnails of the set of photos for that location.
Then, tap on any of the photos you see to then view the photos in full screen view, swiping through them the see the in all their glory.
