Reviews by readers

And, I thought I knew Paris!

Having lived in Paris for a number of years and cherishing my own favorite strolls in the mistaken belief that I knew all Paris' hidden treasures, I had no idea that the Howard's Great Paris WalkPack could transform our vacation from merely wonderful to beyond our greatest expectations. The Great Paris WalkPack links marvelous jewels, many unknown to us, along golden paths of delightful Parisian Streets. It provides you just the right amount of information in the handiest of all formats. We look forward to the Howards' takes on Rome, New York, and London. Your best bet for your next trip and the perfect bon voyage gift.

There's Paris, then there's the Howard's Paris

As a professional City Planner, when I travel I love to experience the real City that exists beyond the traditional tourist attractions. In a prior life the Howard's must have been City Planners because their Great Paris WalkPack beautifully balanced expected Paris monuments with the many unexpected personal details that for me bring a city to life. As a bonus, their well designed format, with individual brochures for each walk that I could slip into my jacket pocket, allowed me to do away with bulky guide books that always mark me as a tourist. The design left my hands free to carry back treasures from strolls along neighborhood streets that they helped me discover .... treats such as a jar of apricot jam as delcicious as the 19th century shop "A La Mere de Famille" the Howard's directed me to on Rue du Faubourg Montmartre and the exquisite scarf for my wife I came across among the dozens of distinctly Parisian boutiques in hidden turn of the century glass covered passages that they brought to my attention. Thanks to the Howard's, I now feel that I have not just seen Paris, I know Paris.

Absolutely one of the best ways to see Paris

I took four of the five tours in one weekend a few weeks ago and am looking forward to taking the fifth on my next visit. The directions are explicit and easy to follow, and the tours take you through paths you would not otherwise notice or uncover. I definitely got much more than I expected for $15.95!
