.Insight Guide Shopping in Paris (Insight Guides (Shopping Guides))
City Travel Guides > Books > Insight Guide
from: Insight Guides

Shopping in Paris can be a good introductory guide to the basics of what was where in the City of Lights at the time the book was written. Because, as the authors indicated, fashions and fashionable neighborhoods are constantly shifting, it is hard to keep track of the latest developments. I liked the book as a good point of departure, especially for first time visitors with limited time and wishing to shop. Although I have visited Paris many times, it was an interesting read with useful tidbits.

This guide has beautiful pictures, but little in the way of actual travel information. I'm a very visual person and love to see where I might go. If this sounds like you too, then buy this book. Add Lonely Planet's guide and you are all set to go.

.Insight Guide Burma/Myanmar (Insight Guides)
City Travel Guides > Books > Insight Guide
by: Francis Doral, Clare Griffiths

September 30, 2000
Insight Guides are generally worth buying for the pictures alone, and the Burma/Myanmar volume is no exception. Background sections are generally good, although there is not much on Buddhism or nat worship (these topics are filled out more in connection with individual sites, however). Covers the entire country (unlike the Odyssey guide). Although it is sometimes a little dry, this guide manages to convey virtually all of the facts you will need about each place you visit, along with the associated mythology, significance of the site, and so on.

.Insight Guide Laos and Cambodia (Laos & Cambodia, 1st ed)
City Travel Guides > Books > Insight Guide
by: Clare Griffiths

2000-08
This is a well-rounded book, with information about history, the people, the sights, the geography, and lots of really good photos. It was especially valuable to me because I was going to both Laos and Cambodia and didn't want to have a book for each of them. If you're looking for a guide that will tell you how to get from A to B, where to stay, where to eat, and so forth, you should probably look to Lonely Planet or Rough Guide. I was on a very small tour, so I didn't need those details and it met my needs very well.

The Insight Guide is a wonderful series, and one that I recommend to all my friends (I often give them as gifts) when they are planning trips to different countries.

The Inisght Guide on France is filled with useful information and wonderful photographs. This book alone could keep you busy for years exploring all that it offers about France!
