Hostelworld.com Offers Free PDF Guides To Major Cities

Planning a trip to a new destination and want advice on how to get around and eat without spending a fortune? Hostelworld.com offers free downloadable PDF guides to more than 50 global cities.

Each guide includes details of public transport options and weather, as well as places to stay and eat and various other bits of trivia. While there’s more European cities covered than anywhere else, every continent is represented (and Australia is, unusually, far better represented than the US.)

The information on offer is fairly basic, and if you’re travelling with a smart phone, you could likely dig up the much of the same data with a little casual surfing. But for a compact, easy-to-print guide with enough information to get you around a given city and offer a few starting ideas, they’re pretty handy.
