Reviews by readers

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, Englisher Garten, Marienplatz and other locations are shown. Worth the cost.

We'll see how useful it is "Over There"

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.

Usage versus price

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.
