Rick Steves' Rome 2008 (Rick Steves)

Rick Steves, Gene Openshaw

Avalon Travel Publishing, 2007

The best guide book
We have been to Rome twice and this is by far the best guide book. It has the latest information and contains everything you need. He gives you information you want and tells you things you wouldn't think to think of. I especially like the step by step instructions on ...

Rick Steves' London 2008 (Rick Steves)

Rick Steves, Gene Openshaw

Avalon Travel Publishing, 2007

Rick Steve's London
My wife and I went to London for a week and this book was excellent for time management to see what we could actually pack in and what was worth checking out. Additionally, Rick's writing style is great and we often found ourselves laughing at his commentary that was ...

Rick Steves' Italian Phrase Book and Dictionary

Rick Steves

Avalon Travel Publishing, 2003

Pocket size Italian guide
I like this Italian guide because it is pocket size (so I can carry it in my Pocket and HAVE IT WITH ME! when I need it) and because it includes more useful phrases than other guides (I don't need to know how to say "Where's the Vatican" I DO need to know how to tell ...

Rick Steve's books are so full of great information. I have a friend who planned their trip around his books, and everything Rick recommended was just as stated. I have planned my upcoming trip the same way.

Rick Steves

Avalon Travel Publishing, 2007

Steves usually has a good take
Rick Steves did a great job on his ITALY 2008 book. I was going to the Cinque Terre and he has a great breakdown for that area in the book. Also, he made good calls on nearby Pisa and Lucca. Steves said that one need not spend A LOT of time in these cities and he is ...

Rick Steves' Best of Europe 2008 (Rick Steves)

Rick Steves

Avalon Travel Publishing, 2007

very useful guidebook with personality
Let me start by stating something that should be obvious: if for whatever reason you do not like Rick Steves, you will not enjoy reading through this guidebook. Although Rick is not the only contributor, it is very much written in his style of speaking. Personally, I ...

Rick Steves

Avalon Travel Publishing, 2007

How to get even more excited about your trip
I love this book! It is very thorough on the major destinations' history and sights. It thoroughly explains things such as how to take the subway, how to interact with the waiter, and how to see the Opera cheaply. It has small black & white photos throughout which ...

Rick Steves, Steve Smith, ...

Fantastic Book for Paris--Highly Recommend
I just returned from Paris and used this book every day on our trip. We were not disappointed. Rick helps you figure out how to get the most out of Paris for the number of days that you're there. He provides tips on how to save money (i.e., Paris Museum Pass worked ...

September Trip
We recetnly traveled to Amsterdam, Bruges, Brussels and Antwerp. We used Rick's book to select the hotels and the areas to visit versus the bigger name publisher review books (like Let's Go and Formers, etc.). We picked three hotels from his book. Two of the three ...

great guide book

Rick Steves' Scandinavia (Rick Steves)

Rick Steves

Avalon Travel Publishing, 2008

Indispensable in Scandinavia
I just returned from a two-week adventure in Scandinavia, where I hung out in Oslo, Copenhagen, and Stockholm. I had a great time seeing the places where my predecessors came from, and I can attribute much of my trip's success to the "Rick Steves' Scandinavia 2005" ...

Rick Steves' France 2008 (Rick Steves)

Rick Steves, Steve Smith

Avalon Travel Publishing, 2007

Thanks Steve. We had a blast.
Having used many guidebooks, I think these are the best. Granted, the Rick Steves books are unique in that they are selective in the areas that they describe, but these areas are described well. With his guides, you feel like Rick is on the trip as your personal tour ...
