There is the wealth of information available about how to find the best deal on airfare, hotel rooms, and more. Because some popular destinations are asked about much more frequently than others, several helpful members have created excellent travel guides for these popular locales. Links to these guides can be found below in the Quick Summary.

Most travelers have heard of Rick Steves and his travel books, videos and travel programs on PBS. He's now adding free audio walking tour guides that can be downloaded through his website or iTunes. So far he only has 4 for Paris locations. There's instructions and a map (PDF) you can print to follow along. Rick Steves audio link
I'm going to be going to Ireland shortly and there're podcasts for Dublin walks too. Dublin Tourism podcasts
Lots of free tour podcasts out there besides Rick Steves:
1. http://www.podguides.net/downloads/downloads.html -- lots of destination choices, but quality may be hit/miss because these are tours recorded by users and uploaded to the site.
2. http://www.budgettravelonline.com/ has some free podcasts for download, including audio tours for Las Vegas and Quebec City.
Some good pay-per-download sites: http://www.ijourneys.com/, http://www.soundwalk.com/, http://www.audisseyguides.com/.
