Reviews by readers

Red guides are not green!

Reviewer Mr Munger is confusing red and green guides. The red guide is a guide to hotels and restaurants in France, nothing more. As such, it is unparalleled.

get the regional guides for depth information

I have fond memories of the French Michelin Guide I had 20 years ago. But it was a regional Guide (Provance). What I loved about that book was that it seemed anything of cultural importance in a town (or village) was mentioned in the Guide. That is not the case with this overview version for all of France.

The other problem with this book is that it is organized alphabetically. If you want to plan a day trip from Paris you will need either another book or a lot of map reading to decide what to look up in this Guide.

The regional Michelin Guides are unique, and clearly worth the high ratings they receive. I can't see why anyone would buy this excerpted version.

did not use it much

I came back from 10-day trip to France. Let me first say it was a great trip, but it's was not because of this book. Actually, I don't remember opening this travel guide during my stay there. I eventually left it at the last hotel I stayed in Nice before I went to Venice. As other reviewers have mentioned, this guide book alphabetizes towns in France, not by region. It is very inconvenient compared with finding what to do in one region, say Provence or a town. Not much tips or details about where to go, where to stay, but states facts of towns and buildings like a boring social study books.
