The city of Prague has started offering tourists a GPS-based tourist guide system.

“The guide will offer places of interest and monuments along with their history to tourists, as well as cultural events, sightseeing routes, Prague restaurants and many other things.” ~ Dagmar Houbova, spokeswoman for the organising Prague Information Service (PIS) company

The guide is currently offered only in English with plans to add other languages as the popularity of the GPS guide increases.  About 8 million tourists a year visit Prague and about 8o percent travel solo.
