.Streetwise Paris Map - Laminated City Street Map of Paris, France - with integrated metro map including lines and stations
City Travel Guides > Books > France
by: Streetwise Maps

January 02, 2008
We have several of the Street Wise maps for different cities. They have a terrific index of streets--makes it easy to find any place in Paris (or other big cities) quickly. The maps are laminated softly and can be folded and carried in a purse or pocket. It also includes a metro map and shows major attractions on the map. It's the absolute best map for travel in Paris.

.Rick Steves' Paris 2008 (Rick Steves)
City Travel Guides > Books > France
by: Rick Steves, Steve Smith, Gene Openshaw

September 28, 2007
I thought this book was really helpful. The maps were great, just wish we had studied them a little more before we went! We had a great time in Paris and took the book with us everywhere we went. It helped us decide (before we went) which sights to see and which to leave out since our time in Paris was short. It also made it easier to find things and get around without wasting a bunch of time going the wrong way. We wouldn't have known about the museum pass without it!

.A Year in Provence
City Travel Guides > Books > France
by: Peter Mayle

June 04, 1991
Mayle's vision of Provence is mostly fantasy. It's true, the details of food and weather and habits are accurate, but it rings of 19th century English colonial patriarchy. The French "peasants" are portrayed like happy go lucky children living in a Romanticized garden of Eden uncorrupted by the real world of London and Paris. Mayle is the benevolent Patriarch in contrast to the towns cast of cartoonish personalities (it's no accident this book was adapted to a comedic TV series). If it was a novel at least there would be a plot, but instead it's a faux anthropological survey with Mayle studying the life and habits of local natives and imparting information for those back home who wish to follow his colonial ambitions (Mayle was in advertising). Its been said travel ... Read More:

.SmartFrench Audio CDs Beginner Level
City Travel Guides > Books > France
by: Christian Aubert

February 01, 2004
I got this program to help me along in my college french class. It worked very well, especially since I'm one of those people who has a hard time with foreign languages. This was like having a tutor at home to help me. My french professor was impressed with how 'quickly' I was learning, little did she know I had another teacher on the side ; )

.Hungry for Paris: The Ultimate Guide to the City's 102 Best Restaurants
City Travel Guides > Books > France
by: Alexander Lobrano

April 15, 2008
I can't believe the mean spirited comments by I. Xenos on "Hungry for Paris." To dismiss Lobrano's wonderfully written and thoughtful essays as being "American" and therefore not accurate is stupid. Perhaps Pudlow wrote these comments since his outdated book is not selling.

All Paris bound tourists, especially english speakers, should own a copy of this well done book.

I purchased this book last year before our 4 week trip to France. This book is interesting and informative. I especially liked the travel tips and recommendations for accomodations outside of Paris.
