.Paris Guide: Your Passport to Great Travel! (Open Road's Paris Guide) City Travel Guides > Books > Open Roads by: R. F. Howe, Diane Huntley 1994-11 After being delighted by their splendid Open Road London Guide, I eagerly awaited my copy of the Paris Guide. Hélas! What a disappointment! This lightweight book has almost no personal "insider" information (unless you want to eat in the 7th arondissement), and it's padded with lots of white space and filler like bare bones lists of French wine producers and food terms (what backwoods folk are these supposedly intimate guides written for anyway?). It's impersonal, superficial, skimpy on all kinds of information, from basics like museums, which include only the biggies, and at that only includes what you could easily find on any number of websites; to shopping info, which --- in this city of shopkeepers and fabulous places to browse ...

.Belize Guide: Your Passport to Great Travel! (Open Road's Belize Guide) City Travel Guides > Books > Open Roads by: Paul Glassman 1993-10 My husband Alan and I personally found the book helpful and referred to it much. Alan is the best travel guide and mentally records what is in travel books and obtains other available information. Others have asked him to plan their vacations as he secures the best deals and knows just where to go. This book was a great aid in knowing what to do and what to expect in prices. We stayed on the island of Ambergris Caye at Captain Morgan's and had a remarkable time. We found the tourists and inhabitants to be far more personal and gracious than those we met in Aruba. However, we could not just walk into the Caribbean and swim as in Aruba; but the 2nd largest barrier reef in the world kept the waters calm ...

.Bermuda Guide: Your Passport to Great Travel (Open Road's Bermuda Guide) City Travel Guides > Books > Open Roads by: Ron Charles 1995-04 This book wasn't a bad read, but its lack of maps was somewhat annoying. It recommends you visit a particular place, but you have to use some other means of finding out where that place is! There are much better travel books out there. >>See More Reviews & Details on Bermuda Guide: Your Passport to Great Travel (Open Road's Bermuda Guide) |
