      EXPERT-CURATED CITY GUIDES
      Our writers live and breathe each city they visit, reviewing every place that makes it into our carefully curated guides. Their essential tips and advice on where to stay, what to do and where to eat will help you discover amazing, off-the-beaten-track places.

      AUDIO PHRASEBOOKS
      Talk to the locals with more than 10,000 phrases for 19 different languages, including Spanish, French, Japanese or Chinese. Finding the right thing to say has never been easier!

      SIMPLE BOOKMARKING
      Save and organize your favorite hotels, restaurants and things to do so you can visit (or revisit) your personal must-sees while on the road.

      This version of Guides includes 100+ cities, including Amsterdam, Barcelona, London, Paris, Rome, New York, Tokyo or Bangkok. New cities are constantly being added and you can vote for your favorite cities to be added in the app.

      Lonely Planet is the world's leading travel content provider, supplying inspiring and trustworthy information for those planning a trip, on the road or browsing as an armchair traveler.

      cannot make much comment since rating to stop the harassment of this app asking me to "rate on Play Store" continually prior to having opportunity to use it - so initial superficial impressions only are provided.... suspect that's true for many other raters as well.

      An Indispensable Tool Easy to use. Leads you to the main places that start your exploration of many places. Lonely Planet continues to update It's app and add even more exciting places.

      I checked guide for my home town, and its really good and accurate with everything worth seeing, so I am realy relying on other guides and looking forward to using them on my forcoming trips

      Great app, the must have while traveling. However it often crashes without any reason.

      I trust Lonely Planet more than trip advisor. This app gives the best recommendations

      Excellent volume of locations with detailed writeups. Runs a little sluggish on 1 year old phone.

      By far the best thing about Lonely Planet guides is the off-the-beaten-path food recommendations...they are almost always on ooint, and great for filtering out the good cheap eats. Can't wait until more places are added!

      Actually it's a great simple app for solo travellers. Trying to manage and bookmark restaurants is really easy and simple on this app. Some lags but not a big deal for me. I think I'm good with this app.

      Content is useful but app has some issues - search doesn't work properly and fails to return results you would expect to be matched, in app purchases are difficult to deal with if you're traveling and don't have data.
