Product Description
This compact and stylish volume presents 101 tasters of cities from around Europe, each one chosen for its appeal to the modern traveler and ease of accessibility. For each destination the low-down on the culture, sights, shopping, accommodation and food is delivered in witty, well-informed prose that highlights the best that the city has to offer. This is accompanied by details of how to get there and who to fly with. Each city is illustrated with excellent color photography. All of the classic European destinations, such as Paris and Florence, are represented, in addition to an eclectic selection of interesting and emerging destinations around the continent such as Vilnius and Brno. 101 Weekends in Europe is the perfect companion for the weekend city breaker choosing their next destination or reliving old haunts.

Not As Good As It Sounds October 4, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
As an expat living in Europe for a while, I was looking for some good recommendations on how to spend my weekends. This book is fine IF all you are looking for are locations and a very broad idea of what's available there (ski the alps). If you are looking for detailed recommendations, this is not the book for you. I wanted to see something like 48 hours in Berlin = hotel rec, breakfast rec, activity rec, lunch rec, activity rec, dinner and nightlife rec....repeat for day 2 and possibly a 3rd day for those so inclined. Each location could have had several such itineraries one for culture, one for outdoor activities, etc. So, long story short, don't buy this book thinking that's what you'll get or you'll be as disappointed as I was.
