.Berlin (Lonely Planet City Guides)

by: Andrea Schulte-Peevers, Tom Parkinson

August 01, 2006
This book is terrible! Yes it tells you very briefly about places, but not really where they are. I looked up a place then turned to the map reference given, to find I was then given another page number to check, which was useless. I looked at the book several times before traveling and never even found any details how to get from the airport to the city... A must for a starting point I feel. I have used the Rough Guides in the past, with no problems, I will be sticking to them in future! If your going to Berlin use the internet instead of this book..it all you need.

.Germany (Lonely Planet Country Guide)

by: Andrea Schulte-Peevers

March 01, 2007
I have only recently discovered the delights of Germany, and this book provides a decent amount of information to get you started. The history bit at the front, maps and language bit at the back are just three of the particularly useful features of this book. A must for people travelling to Germany.

.The Rough Guide to Berlin - 7th edition

by: John Gawthrop, Jack Holland

July 28, 2005
I had an earlier edition, well-thumbed, but have felt it was getting out-of-date. This new version at last rejigs the whole treatment of the central part of the city. It provides a logical approach for a walking tour for instance, great for becoming re-acquainted with parts of the city that have altered so much in recent years. A city that is on the move and changing so much needs a fresh approach like this. As a frequent visitor, I learned much, and look forward to getting the next edition. I won't hesitate so long again.

.Berlin (Rough Guide Map)

by: Rough Guides

January 27, 2005
I have never given maps much thought before: Bought this map after amazon review recommendation.
Yes, excellent. Extremely easy to use & see where going etc. (Although also used another U bahn map as well as routes slightly more detailed than on Rough Guide map)
It covers Berlin but but you will need further maps for Wannsee & daytrips from berlin. Overall it was a much better city map than the one my companion bought out there. It folds well is slim & light & the coated paper is supposedly waterproof so map doesn't all fall apart after 1 day's use! Still looks unused.
I too shall look out for similar type of map for future trips.

.The Rough Guide to Germany (Rough Guide Travel Guides)

by: Gordon McLachlan

April 29, 2004
having owned previous editions of this guide, I found it disappointing as the level of detail about places to eat and sleep has been greatly reduced. Previous editions included great advice about good places to stay of the beaten track and these have simply left out. On the positive, the history etc is as good as ever.
