 What? October 18, 2008
Renee (Greece)
In Europe now for almost 2 years I have done a lot of page flipping with this book ... back and forth...searching for useful information. There is some but certainly not worthy of over one thousand pages. Now I am headed for France and this will be my first time in Paris and was planning a trip to Normandy so I opened my book and there is absolutely no mention of anything. They have a map of France with some of the cities in this region and have chose to exclude everything else. I have heard so much about the museums and memorials, as well as the towns, scenery and atmosphere of this region. It is a shame this book does not describe it. 2 stars for effort...but my niece came to visit during her Europe trip and she had Rick Steves Travel Book...she loved it.

I purchased this book because of a cruise I will be taking in the fall. I was looking for background on all the countries I would visit in Europe. This book has nothing on Poland--only listed on the map. Otherwise I felt there was a lot of excellent information.

Def not a good book for those who don't like to travel to just the big cities. It has a basic synopsis of 2-3 major cities in each of the countries. It mostly focuses on hotels and restaurants instead of sights. A better book to buy is Lonely Plants On a Shoestring, it at least gets cities that aren't complete tourist attractions and gives you some sights to see. It's sad that I now have to buy a book specifically for each country that I'm going to visit and so far that's gonna be over 7 books to tote around. Def save your money and do internet research or get lonely planets book
 Great for yourself or as a Gift October 13, 2007

Gave this as a gift to a friend who traveled Europe for 3 months on a study abroad program with her college. She used it every step of the way. Some people just don't think to buy something like this for traveling because they don't know that it even exists!
