Schmap offers free maps and guides for cities that are complete with reviews and photo slideshows. Their free guides feature dining, art & entertainments, activities, hotels and everything else you would expect in a good travel guide. You can choose from viewing their guides online or via their desktop software which is available for both Mac and PC. And now Schmap has optimized their guides for the iPhone and iPod Touch as well which have a neat Rotate n’ Map feature so that by turning your iPhone sideways you can see places on a map and scroll a list as the map dynamically updates. Their iPhone optimized site isn’t available yet to the public but we did get a chance to try it and we love its neat interface and it seems very resourceful. We’ll definately be bookmarking Schmap for our upcoming summer travels.
