3.0 out of 5 stars Berlin travel guides, April 2, 2003

By 

Michael Turner (Nashville, TN United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Lonely Planet Berlin (Paperback)

This book has all the information you need, to prepare you for a wonderful vacation in Berlin. It's the kind of book that you curl up with near the fire on a cold snowy winter day and read about the trip you'll take during the summer. But--------- there are better guides for those individuals who have travelled in Europe before and who just want the nuts and bolts and will allow the city to visit them. I personally recommend either DK (Dorling Kindersley) Eyewitness Guide to Berlin or the slightly older Knopf 'City Guide' published last in 1998. However with Berlin changing so rapidly, you'll probably do better with the DK guide. It has more photos which aren't essential, but are a nice added feature but more importantly it breaks the city up in a better way to help you get the most out of your time. I think it's much better.

2.0 out of 5 stars Maps are useless (Kindle version), May 17, 2011

This review is from: Lonely Planet Berlin City Guide (Kindle Edition)

The body text links you to a map, but the maps only have numbers on them without any legend telling you what each number represents. How are we supposed to know where to find the described venues?

The iBookstore version is much easier to use, especially with maps.

It is a very complete guide, with all kinds of information, the maps could be bigger and folded.
