.Rick Steves' Paris 2007 (Rick Steves) City Travel Guides > Books > Rick Steves by: Rick Steves, Steve Smith, Gene Openshaw September 28, 2006 Rick Steves' Paris had great information and wonderful tips. It was very helpful to have organized vacation plans, but also had enough ideas and favorite destinations that it allowed us to pick and choose which would work with our schedules. I especially liked the walking tour guide. It made getting from place to place fun, informative, and a good use of time. >>See More Reviews & Details on Rick Steves' Paris 2007 (Rick Steves) |

.Rick Steves' Prague and the Czech Republic 2007 (Rick Steves) City Travel Guides > Books > Rick Steves by: Rick Steves, Honza Vihan February 16, 2007 The Prague book continues in the great Rick Steves tradition. We recently used this book as a guide throughout the Czech Republic and found everything up-to-date and bang-on; the insider information was invaluable. We ate at his recommendations in Cesky Krumlov as well as Prague and had great meals. I only wish Steves would provide a few more shopping tips, but overall this is a great, up-to-date book! >>See More Reviews & Details on Rick Steves' Prague and the Czech Republic 2007 (Rick Steves) |

.Rick Steves' Portugal 2007 (Rick Steves) City Travel Guides > Books > Rick Steves by: Rick Steves February 05, 2007 We bought this (1/08) immediately, based on our favorable experience with the Paris and England books (used 6 months ago); this one is a slim volume and has really rudimentary information, omitting many of the small towns and descriptions which, in other works, enabled us to build an itinerary. It's extremely good for planning for/navigating Lisbon, and the sections on Coimbra and Porto are fairly thorough. (We didn't read the Algarve section, so can't comment on it other than it seems to occupy a good bit of the book.) But the coastal towns, north and eastern areas suffer some serious neglect. If I were only going to Lisbon, Sintra and that area, I would find the book worthwhile. If we were going to the Algarve, I'd pick it up and check through it ...

.Rick Steves' Easy Access Europe: A Guide for Travelers with Limited Mobility (Rick Steves) City Travel Guides > Books > Rick Steves by: Rick Steves May 04, 2006 it's good to see someone spend the time to bring out a book for travelling in europe for people with limited mobility, but this book has only London, paris, belgium, amsterdam and a little of germany. so it's not really easy access europe is it. where is the rest of the europe, etc Spain, italy, austria etc? can be improved... >>See More Reviews & Details on Rick Steves' Easy Access Europe: A Guide for Travelers with Limited Mobility (Rick Steves) |

.Rick Steves' Germany and Austria 2007 (Rick Steves) City Travel Guides > Books > Rick Steves by: Rick Steves November 28, 2006 On our two week trip, the book was always with us. Being originally from Berlin, I still needed the updates form my time. In the Rhine and Bavaria areas we just followed Rick's advise and had a great time. >>See More Reviews & Details on Rick Steves' Germany and Austria 2007 (Rick Steves) |

.Rick Steves' Mona Winks: Self-Guided Tours of Europe's Top Museums (5th Edition) City Travel Guides > Books > Rick Steves by: Rick Steves November 09, 2001 I have found all of Rick Steves' books to be worth their weight in gold. You will save so much time and money by using them. However, as loaded with good information as this one is, I found it rather useless once in the museums because I couldn't peel my eyes off the art to look at a book!! The thought of pouring through a book spoiled the mood, so I never used it while in the museums. However, if you wanted to, this is the book for you. >>See More Reviews & Details on Rick Steves' Mona Winks: Self-Guided Tours of Europe's Top Museums (5th Edition) |

.Rick Steves' Scandinavia 2007 (Rick Steves) City Travel Guides > Books > Rick Steves by: Rick Steves January 16, 2007 As with all of Rick Steve's books, it makes me wish we could do the whole 3 week tour described... but, with only ONE day in Copenhagen and a partial day in Oslo, it was still very useful. The main thing we learned was to buy the OSLO PASS and the COPENHAGEN PASS (available at the tourist booths) because it included all public transportation for 24 hours and also most admissions to things like the Viking Museum, City Hall, Nobel Peace Prize museum, the Norwegian folk museum/park etc. (Oslo) and even more in Copenhagen - the palaces, Tivoli Gardens, museums, and the buses. Loved the comment about the canal cruises in Copenhagen. If I had not read that, we would never have thought to do it. The highlight of our trip! >>See More Reviews & Details on Rick Steves' Scandinavia 2007 (Rick Steves) |

.Rick Steves' Spain and Portugal Map: Including Barcelona, Madrid and Lisbon (Rick Steves) City Travel Guides > Books > Rick Steves by: Rick Steves December 29, 2006 i'm thrilled with the purchase of our first rick steves travel book. his website and tv shows are VERY informative and practical and this 2008 book on Spain does not disappoint. it's not too clunky to take with us on our travels - yet, for day trips, we're photocopying a few "walking tour" pages so we don't have to take the book with us when we're travelling lighter. ... while he doesn't highlight EVERY inch of spain, he surely hits all the highlights! NO complaints and we look forward to experiencing more of the world through his expertise! >>See More Reviews & Details on Rick Steves' Spain and Portugal Map: Including Barcelona, Madrid and Lisbon (Rick Steves) |

.Rick Steves' Rome 2007 (Rick Steves) City Travel Guides > Books > Rick Steves by: Rick Steves, Gene Openshaw August 22, 2006 My husband and I honeymooned in Italy in June, 2007. This was our first trip abroad so it was imperative for us to choose a good guide book. Rick Steves' guide to Rome proved to be an invaluable tool for our trip, especially in the planning phase. Strengths: - Great for pre-trip planning such as locating a hotel, getting around the city, deciding which sites to visit, etc. We stayed at Gulliver's Place and L-O-V-E-D it. - Especially helpful is his section on planning your sight-seeing based on the number of days you will be there. His ratings of most important to least important things to see were, for the most part, spot-on. We relied upon his recommendations for our week-long trip heavily. - His walking tours were ...
