Not your usual travel guides

Rick Steves' regional or by-country guides are not your typical travel guides, that usually try to cover everything and anything. Instead, they describe specific, and opinionated, itineraries - what Rick thinks are the highlights of that area/country. Pictures and such are not the point. The easy to read handdrawn, not really-to-scale, maps are though. Believe me, if you follow one of his itineraries you can't go too wrong, especially if your time is limited. If you'd rather make up your own schedule and travel plans, these guides are not for you. If you would like a compact guide that has the tone of a friendly and knowledgeable travel guide talking to you, then these are for you.

Don't leave for France without this book.

Rick Steve's writes a great travel book and doesn't mind giving you his unvarnished opinion on everything from tourist sights to where to stay. If you just take one travel book with you to France, this is the one to take!

Don't judge a book by its cover

I wish I could review this book, but the copy I received said France on the front, and the book inside was actually for Tuscany. I am still waiting for the promised replacement copy. Amazon.com was not interested in checking the other copies they had on hand for similar errors so there may be others out there that are not as they first appear!
