I took this book everywhere in Rome and it was worth it! The tips on best times to visit museums/sites helped me to save time and plan ahead. I was carrying this book with me into Rick's recommended restaurants and I was treated like a queen.
While there are literally dozens of Rome guides, Rick Steves provides more than the highlights of Rome's vast array of neighborhoods, museums, antiquities, and cathedrals. His insider tips are just what the traveler needs to avoid lines, take great walks, and organize your time. As an experienced traveler, I thought the book might be too basic, but greatly enjoyed his writing style and organization. His tips on neighborhood restaurants is perfect for those who want to combine museum/cathedral hopping with a convenient, untouristy meal. I look forward to using Rick's guides for other cities.
Mr. Steves Rome tour guide is, like most of his other books very useful. I always want to know where to stay and have that arranged before I arrive in a city. Rick's useful information helps with that. He has very good ideas for arranging a tour of the city and helps with places to eat.
