.Rick Steves' Italy 2008 (Rick Steves)

September 28, 2007
Rick Steves did a great job on his ITALY 2008 book. I was going to the Cinque Terre and he has a great breakdown for that area in the book. Also, he made good calls on nearby Pisa and Lucca. Steves said that one need not spend A LOT of time in these cities and he is right. A few hours to see the main sights in Pisa (3 including the leaning tower) are fine and a good 2-hour walk-a-round in Lucca is enough too. Special Note on Lucca: Puccini was born in Lucca and they perform recitals of his works in one of the churches there. This would be worth an overnight to catch a recital if you want to soak in more culture than you can from just street scenes. Suggestion: travel to Pisa early in the day, visit the Field of Miracles, then end up in Lucca ... Read More:

I loved this book. I used it to help plan my trip beforehand and it helped me re-evaluate the plan when I couldn't cover all the stops I wanted.
The information was very accurate with great tips.

.Rick Steves' Ireland 2008 (Rick Steves)

We went to Ireland last year for the first time and loved it so much, we are going again this year. We purchased this book as well as another guidebook. This one is fabulous -- very well thought out and organized - you can tell he really knows what he is talking about -- this is the one that we will bring with us -- he even tells you when and how to drive the Dingle Peninsula to avoid the tourist buses -- does not give you too much information. He has a very honest and down to earth approach which makes for an informative and interesting read!

.Rick Steves' Germany and Austria 2008 (Rick Steves)

This book is typical Rick Steves. He has preordained that only certain places are worth visiting and therefore has excluded all others. It is true that his coverage of the Rhine and Mosel valleys is probably the best of any English-language guide book, but his omissions are many. He completely avoids any mention of the many castles and palaces in Bavaria, save the overly popular Neuschwanstein and a handful of others. Bavarian gems like Coburg Schloss Ehrenburg, Kempten Residenz, Ansbach Residenz, and Neuburg Palace, and others like Eisenach Wartburg Castle and Gotha Schloss Friedenstein are given a miss. Could it be that his guide books only cover the places his tours visit for obvious personal financial reasons? If you are a Rick Steves groupie, then feel ... Read More:

Rick Steves' books are always amazing. Detailed, yet easy to read. His humor comes out and he is bluntly honest with you about what's worth it and what's not.
