Description

From the listing uploaded by “catappult”.

Going to travel? The best free travel guides are here for you to enjoy your trips and visits to the best cities in the world! It all started because what we like the most in our travels is to walk while enjoying the surroundings from a major attraction to another. Usually when we take a cab, a bus or (even more) the subway, we end up losing a lot because it's just too fast and we don't get to internalize as much as we do when walking. The thing is that there isn't many options of guides that help us in that. Paper maps don't give us much information, book guides are uncomfortable, not cheap and sometimes have information in excess. Until now! Best Free Guides are here to help people getting to know at least the basics about the best sights and landmarks of each city without spending a penny and having to carry uncomfortable guides. The main benefits: Simple and Free - No need to buy costly and uncomfortable travel guides or to keep looking for information in different sites like Wikipedia, TripAdvisor, Google... Relevant Info - Best free guides provide you relevant information on the MAIN ATTRACTIONS. If you have time, then you can see other things after you're done with the basics! Easy Map - Easy and complete map with directions! No need for a physical map that shows main attractions BUT don't give much information about them.

Best Free Guides APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the Best Free Guides APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Unknown. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 4e9f4bf80557eb367f025618d6646096.
