Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Map!!
Review: Although similar free maps are available, I appreciated the size of this one and was able to use it easily without digging out my reading glasses. I used it every day and found the specific instructions on finding tourist sites after leaving the tube stations to be very helpful.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Get free map in london
Review: At london underground stations there are free maps which are just as good and are a more convenient size. Save your money.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The walking tours were just what I was looking for
Review: I just returned from London - using your "London by the Underground" transit map all the way. It is the most superb transit map in existence. Everyone was borrowing it from me - especially the Concierge at the hotel where I was staying. It is a little ragged now from all the use by me and others, so I am ordering another one - to lend to my niece and her husband who are soon going to London.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: (review was extracted from letter to publisher)
Review: I plan to use this excellent London Underground map as a gift..

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Map for those who forget their glasses
Review: I read all the popular tour books before I left for London and Paris, but only took Brein's Underground Maps and the Penguin Map Guide books with me. I could read and clearly understand Brein's Map without having to pull out my glasses all the time and the directions on exiting the undergrounds were helpful.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Perfect for tourism
Review: These maps provide a real easy way to see the best of London sights. You are directed from the subway to each sight. You cant get lost. Easy to read and convenient.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Over rated out of date map
Review: This is out of date - new lines have opened and other altered as a consequence. Accurate small maps are available free and large scale up to date maps (With discount offers to places of interest)are available from vending machines... in any undground (subway) station. ... - save your money.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Old, maps need to be current
Review: This map is outdated. Several lines have been extended. I noted that when going out to Greenwich and finding the Docklands Light Rail line had been extended and I didn't need to walk from the end of the line.

Freebee maps are available at all tube stations and on the web.

Summary: Well worth the few bucks
Review: Yes, you can get an underground map at no cost in London or even download and print one off the net but they do NOT list the points of interest with such incredibly clear directions and include thirty-two mini maps on the reverse side that give walking instructions from the station to the site. I purchased this map and planned trips prior to my first London trip. I threw all the free maps and one other purchased map in the trash. The only improvement to the map I can think of would be if it had been printed on plastic impregnated paper. Be sure to purchase your travel card (tube pass voucher) prior to departure through your travel agent or the net. A handy companion is the "Dorling Kindersly London City Map" - - also available at Amazon.com. They are the only two maps I shall take on my next(third) London trip. God bless America.
