City Guides by National Geographic App Reviews

A must have

This app was perfect for my recent trip to Europe. Every restaurant that was highly rated was amazing, and every attraction review and description was extremely helpful in making decisions on what to see and do. The most amazing feature was the map that works in airplane mode so you can still navigate through the city streets! Only gave it four stars because I wish it had more cities. Other than this, the app is amazing!

Great

Navigating the app is easy and clean. Great overall all

Stupid

I cant believe that national Didint put many countrys

Used for some not all

The design is nice, but the variety is lacking. There are only 4 or 5 cities to choose from, granted its comprehensive, I still would prefer most countries of interest to be included.

Not enough

There is only 4 countries here. Very, very disappointing...

For the Paisano

What are you kidding me? Only 4 cities? 20 would be more fitting! Los Angeles, Mumbai, Hong Kong, Singapore, Mexico City, Toronto, Moscow, Rio Di Janeiro, Lima, Chicago, Philadelphia, Bangkok, Calcutta, Sicily, Ibiza, Florence, Naples, Venice, Rome, Munich, etc...etc...

Do not waste time on it

bud experiment

Waste of Time

4 cities only.... Not useful and limited content.

Bait & Switch

Useless app unless you "buy a city" for $4.99. Without doing that everything useful is locked. A few pretty pictures are at your disposal, but thats about it.

Utter joke.

This is really pathetic.

Ridiculous

This app is half baked. The description leads you to believe you have the option to view more than the 4 cities mentioned. You do not. The developers should have either been more honest in the description or waited until the app was complete before launching.

Wow Nat Geo.... Wow

Terrible app. You would think a company like Nat Geo would not jump on the in-app purchase wagon but here they are. hand out bagging you for $5 for a city guide... On top of that there are only 4 cities. Although I thinks it is to high , I cant say that I wouldnt spend the money for a city I was visiting. But 4 cities??There should be hundreds of cities on here. Not 4

This is a joke.

You can only view 4 cities and not much of them. This is a terrible app, dont even waste your time.

Completely useless

I usually love everything the NG does. But this is complete $#!¥. I would actually pay the five dollars for a city that I was traveling in, but to release this app without adding at least the top 20 city destinations is about as unprofessional as it comes. They have guide books for about every city on the planet.. and they are great! But I guess even transcribing those into digital content is impossible.

Why buy this??

Theres no way you could use this for travel. You can only get four selected cities on that app.

IAP scam

National Geographic should be embarrassed.

Great app!

Thanks for the quick fix - this is a great app!

No Washington DC?

Great app, but it could use some new locations

Not Useful!

Only offers 4 cities of preview/sample guides. They cost $4.99 a guide (IAP)... Dont download unless youre going to Paris, Rome, London, or New York. Otherwise, this app is worthless.

Nat Geo WIN

I never write reviews. Im headed to NYC next week and the guides are informative and well designed. Super easy to use. It includes a short history of most sights, maps, cross street locations, subway stops and even speak easy secrets! Awesome job guys.
