Who does not know the Lonely Planet "> LonelyPlanet's new Guide app contains maps, tips and guides for several major cities around the world and allows you to download the same guides so you don't have to connect to the internet. For the moment, there are guides for 37 cities including Amsterdam, Barcelona, Paris, Rome, Berlin, Dublin, Moscow, Venice, Prague, Budapest and Vienna in Europe, Boston, Chicago, San Francisco, Montreal, New York and Washington DC in North America, Tokyo, Beijing, Kyoto, Singapore and Seoul in Asia and then also Rio de Janeiro, Dubai, Cape Town and other cities.
Once you download a city guide, you will find an overview, a currency converter and a tool for calculating the budget according to your budget.
Each city also has a map with the main attractions, restaurants and bars, hotels and other accommodation options, shops for shopping, and other places to have fun.
You can search and filter through each of these categories by price and by distance from your current location
There is also the possibility of saving destinations in a list.
The only thing that is a bit lacking concerns the section of photos, few and without any videos.
However, this allows you to keep the app on your phone without taking up too much space.
Instead, a route planner is missing, which would be perfect for making the Lonely Planet an indispensable tool for any trip.
Lonely Planet thus becomes a great alternative to other travel and holiday apps, first of all TripAdvisor which provides guides for individual cities in a rather similar way.
The Lonely Planet Guide app is free for Android and iPhone .
