#Michael Brein's Guide to Berlin by the U-Bahn shows travelers how to go to Berlin s top 50 visitor attractions by U-Bahn (subway), S-Bahn (suburban rail), national rail, tram, and bus. The guide shows which transit to use, which lines to take, which stops to board and exit at, and, using about 30 detailed mini-area-walking maps, shows exactly how to walk from these stops right to the visitor attractions. Additional nearby points of interest are also indicated on these mini-maps. An ultra-large (very easy to read) official map of Berlin s transit system is also provided. The Berlin guide is concise, compact, and comprehensive and fits in your pocket (leave the bulky books back in the hotel room!). Michael Brein's Berlin guide is part of the world's first and only travel guide series specifically designed to show travelers how to sightsee the top 50 visitor attractions by public transportation in a variety of the world's most visited cities.#

In all my years in travel, I've seen some offbeat things, but when I got a copy of Sightseeing by Public Transportation I was hooked, fascinated and wondered why no one's done this before. --On the Road with John Clayton

Good map of key points of interst.,

This review is from: Michael Brein's Guide to Berlin by the U-Bahn (Michael Brein's Guides to Sightseeing By Public Transportation) (Michael Brein's Guides to Sightseeing By ... to Sightseeing By Public Transportation) (Map)
Front of large fold out map shows Schnellbahn-Netzplan, U-bahn and S-bahn routes. Author numbers points of interest and describes them on the back. Back has brief description of points of interest, and a 2"x3" map of each point. You still need to know what you want to visit based on prior research. U-Bahn maps for BMW Museum, Hofbrauhaus, Englisher Garten, Marienplatz and other locations are shown. Worth the cost.

This review is from: Michael Brein's Guide to Berlin by the U-Bahn (Michael Brein's Guides to Sightseeing By Public Transportation) (Michael Brein's Guides to Sightseeing By ... to Sightseeing By Public Transportation) (Map)
I didn't find that this map was of any use, versus the map. A standard map given free by the Information booths cover almost all, and are free. The paper is thin, so that with slight usage it wrips along the folding edges.

This subway map is useless as it is about 12 years old and the subway lines
have changed greatly in Berlin. A waste of money.
