The guidebook you have been waiting for
Excitement…
For those travellers that have been waiting patiently, it’s finally here…
Yes, Lonely planet have finally launched a rather marvellous GPS based city specific guidebook app for the i-phone.
Hurrah! So why is this a good thing?
- No bulky book to carry (brilliant if you hate looking like a ‘tourist’)
- As its an app, no roaming internet costs (can’t wait for these evil charges to become a thing of the past)
- GPS enabled so you can see your current location / never get lost / make itineraries on dynamic maps
- Find the closest / best / most exclusive bars, clubs, restaurants
- All the usual brilliant Lonely Planet copy…
Well done chaps, and for all of you out there, San Fran is currently free to download.
GO GO GO!
