Good book for sites/eating suggestions March 25, 2008 My wife and went to Italy in Sept. 2007, it was amazing to see how many people had the same book. We really liked the book for the suggestions for sites (rating system he uses for must sees) and suggestions for eating estabishments. I thought the suggestions for lodging were a little bit more then our budget could afford...there are great travel sites on the web that can offer lodging at reasonable prices, we did go to some of the dining places and they were great.
Travel Book too well read March 25, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I guess it comes with the territory of a travel guide that is this popular. I bought a few books to plan a 2 week vacation in Italy. This travel guide had great ideas, but I was unable to book a single hotel in Rick Steve's book. I travelled in October and tried to make reservations in the previous April-May. My husband and I both felt it would have been wiser and probably cheaper to travel with a tour company that allows a lot of individual choices, instead making all our reservations and plans ourselves.
A waste of paper December 16, 2007 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
After reading this guide I was no better directed than general online research. I expected ratings, recommendations and highlights. The useless descriptions of restaurants and lodging are general with a price indicator - nothing to help you make a match to your desire. Missed too much more than I can list here. Bologna, a major city was not even in the index. My first and last Rick Steves guidebook.
A great resource for Italy December 13, 2007 I highly recommend this book or any Rick Steves books or videos for that matter. We took this book to Italy and the phrase "Rick says..." became so common that we were joking that he was the third person on the trip! What a great job that guy has!
Worthless worthless worthless December 5, 2007 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Did I mention this map is worthless? If you want to show your kids the general shape of Italy, with a few of the large cities penned in then this is the map for you! If you want to see some actual roads, and cities somewhat smaller than Milan, you are out of luck. I was stunned when I opened up this map... very very little detail.
