Additional nearby points of interest are also indicated on these mini-maps. The Berlin guide is concise, compact, and comprehensive and fits in your pocket (leave the bulky books back in the hotel room!). 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. #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. An ultra-large (very easy to read) official map of Berlin s transit system is also provided. 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.#
"We'll see how useful it is "Over There"" according to B. Nyberg. This "guide" has the look & feel of a freebie handout, so $5 seems pricy for it. The big accordion graphic of the U- & S-Bahn system & very brief how-to-get-there (& why) directions on the backside may prove more useful than I'm expecting them to be. I'll be in a better position to judge this product's worth 2 weeks from now, after Berlin.. Good map of key points of interst. 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, English. "Usage versus price" according to Client. 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.
