. Fodor's France 2003: The Guide for All Budgets, Where to Stay, Eat, and Explore On and Off the Beaten Path
City Travel Guides > Books > Off the Beaten Path
by: Fodor's
October 01, 2002
I had no idea Fodor's guide books were so crammed with excitement! I naturally expected a ton of information, but Fodor's France comes on like a Rolls-Royce: full of elan and poetry, plus precision. Some site descriptions are like tone-poems, restaurant reviews are mouth watering, hotels are frankly yet colorfully rendered. When it comes to the big places---Chartres, Monet's Giverny, Chambord, etc.---the detailed texts really put you there, but Fodor's also lets you in on loads of undiscovered villages and low-profile getaways. There are no photos in the book, but I found the texts to be photogenic enough, starting with the juicy chapter intros. (In contrast, Frommer's France, though adequate, seems topheavy on things like geography and population ... Read More:

I took two country guides with me to England: Fodors and Frommers (see my review). Frommers is my first choice for England, and here is why. Fodors publications tend to be for the more affluent travelers. Dont be mislead by the subtitle, which states: Guide for All Budgets- NOT. Though I am no longer a young, backpacking, hostel staying traveler, I am not rich, nor am I affluent, nor even close to the 'very comfortable' category. Rather, probably like most who will buy this guide, I am a mid-income, working stiff. So, for me, the mass majority of the selections in this book are steep. In London, most of Fodors accommodations are more than $100, many $200-$400. Hotels in smaller cities or towns were at $80-$340. I would not hesitate ... Read More:
