 Takes getting used to but a good guide October 28, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Initially I found this book dificult and confusing to use as its layout and design are different from conventional guidebooks. However, after using it for a few days while in Italy I became accustomed to it. It has good historic information on all the sights and touristic destinations so it was ideal for doing tours of Florence and Rome when I was there. The maps were excellent and helped me find my way around. The one thing that this guidebook lacks is tips on shopping and more details on 'how to get there'. In conclusion, I would buy another Eyewitness Travel, however, I would give myself a few days to familiarise myself with it before leaving!!
 Great Travel Book October 8, 2007
This is a great travel book. I just got back from a week vacation to Rome. I got this as a gift and if I had my choice, I would have gotten the guide for Rome alone. However, this book still had a great deal of detail and helped me plan my trip. The pictures are beautiful and only served to heighten my enthusiasm to go. What really made the book great was the background information about the sites. I enjoyed site seeing so much more knowing the history and importance of the sites. The book also gives recommendations for places to stay and eat and a survival guide for your travels in Italy. I was impressed by the DK Eyewitness Travel series and will look for it on my next trip.

Very good for traveling through Italy. We stayed in 5 different cities over 10 days. We looked at this book every day to help us decide what we wanted to do in each city.
Dependably good July 22, 2007

I have bought or borrowed several Eyewitness Travel Guides in the past several years, and have carried them all over Europe. They are a bit heavyweight, but I enjoy reading them berfore, during, and after the visit. The graphics are great and the layout is logical.
Great book...lots of pictures May 28, 2007

Great book for preparing for a trip. It's a bit heavy so I wouldn't carry it around while touring but otherwise ok.
