Publisher Description
This guide is designed for optimal navigation on eReaders, smartphones, and other mobile electronic devices. It is indexed alphabetically and by category, making it easier to access individual articles. Articles feature information about attractions, landmarks, districts, transportation, cultural venues, dining, history and much more. Addresses, telephones, hours of operation and admissions information are included. The guide is complemented by clearly marked maps that are linked to city attractions. An interlinked phrasebook as well as a pronunciation guide are included.
This travel guide also features an itinerary with our suggestions for your travel route. Itineraries include links to individual attraction articles.
NEW FEATURE: The attraction articles now include links to Google Maps. On a dedicated electronic reader with a slow connection and a primitive browser, Google Maps will display the attraction on the map along with metro stations, roads, and nearby attractions. On an internet-enabled device such as the iPhone and the iPad, Google Maps will even show you the route from your current location to the attraction you want to go to.

Customer Reviews
Prague Calling
If you are a first timer to Prague this is a great guide. It will give you information on the major sites to see including useful information such as opening and closing times, costs, how to get to major tourist attractions and the best times to go. Overall this is a great guide for someone new to Prague who wants to see all the major sites. Don't waste your money or break your shoulder carrying around a costly and heavy traditional guidebook.
$10 for Wikipedia?
Not good: this seems to be mostly copied-and-pasted from Wikipedia articles about Prague, complete with misspellings and other errors. You can do much better than this.
