I'm a little confused with previous reviews of Rick Steves' Rome book. Are we reading the same book? Poor content? Really? I'm planning my first trip to Rome and, if anything, this book has been an indispensable planning tool for our big trip. I have been "traveling" with Rick for many years now. I update my "Europe Through the Back Door" books whenever I plan a trip to Europe, and my 3 versions ...             Rick Steves' Paris 201012 reviews Rick Steves, Steve Smith, ... Avalon Travel Publishing, 2009 Great for a first trip to Paris Rick Steves' guides are among the most practical and reliable, and also highly readable. In this guide, Steves focuses on the most important Paris sites, and gives great advice on accommodations and dining. Highly recommended for a first trip to Paris. For a second or later trip, you might want a supplementary guide--one that provides more detail about secondary sites if you aren't going to ...             Rick Steves' London 20102 reviews Rick Steves, Gene Openshaw Avalon Travel Publishing, 2009 WONDERFUL AND COMPLETE: We have used Rick Steve's books for years and after purchasing the London book along with Paris and Prague we found all to be marvelous , but the London book was a steop above with its ideas and support.             Rick Steves' Ireland 2010 with map Rick Steves, Pat O'Connor Avalon Travel Publishing, 2009 You can count on Rick Steves to tell you what you really need to know when traveling in Ireland.

While it is true that Rick Steves' Italy 2010 doesn't cover the extreme southern part of Italy or Sicily, it covers the areas that we plan to visit, and in that respect, I feel it is fairly comprehensive. Of course, I would always recommend that one traveling to Italy ...             Road Trip USA: Cross-Country Adventures on America's Two-Lane Highways55 reviews Jamie Jensen Avalon Travel Publishing, 2009 Essential guide! My husband and I are planning a road trip to Annapolis, MD from CA. to see my niece graduate from Annapolis Naval Academy in 2010.

Left it with tour director.             Rick Steves' Europe Through the Back Door 2010: The Travel Skills Handbook3 reviews Rick Steves Avalon Travel Publishing, 2009 Excellent "Users Manual" for Europe This book is chock full of critical information on planning and executing your European trip. Even if you are an experienced traveler, this is a goldmine of information and tips. This is geared toward the type of traveler that likes to design his/her own trip rather than hop on a bus with a guide and a bunch of fellow citizens. Rick's point is that individual travel gets you in closer contact ...             Rick Steves' European Christmas9 reviews Rick Steves, Valerie Griffith Avalon Travel Publishing, 2005 DVD - European Christmas Holiday from the Comfort of Home Wish you could go to Europe for Christmas? Well, this DVD is the next best thing to an exotic holiday, and there are no crowds at the airport, traffic jams or surly clerks. This DVD is filled with glorious scenery, historical landmarks, beautiful choral music and sights most of us could not arrange no matter how large our travel budget.

He spent many hours on Italy, for example, but I could have easily watched three times as much. He did an outstanding, professional job, yet I felt he gave a good, personal touch, talking directly to me and not giving me a lecture.             Rick Steves' Paris 200935 reviews Rick Steves, Steve Smith, ... Avalon Travel Publishing, 2008 Don't leave without it!!! Awesome book- we carried it all over Paris and saw other people carrying it and walking the routes, lol. I did find the Ru Cler walk a bit disappointing- way too crowded and the merchants a little over run. But- we found another great place with the same type shoppes, just a little lower key. I advise finding your own "picnic supplies" places. The book was great for the museums, the prices were ...             Rick Steves' Athens and The Peloponnese5 reviews Rick Steves Avalon Travel Publishing, 2009 Rick Steves - The Easiest and Most Reliable Travel Books!!!!

It felt like he was standing beside us, anticipating our questions and concerns, giving us tips, etc. We have always used Frommers or Fodors and have been satisfied with both, but we are now Rick Steve's converts. He also ...             How to Keep Your Volkswagen Alive 19 Ed: A Manual of Step-by-Step Procedures for the Compleat Idiot129 reviews John Muir, Tosh Gregg Avalon Travel Publishing, 2001 A must have how to book I bought an early edition in the early 70's and lost it after I sold my VWs.

You have to read the whole thing--how to handle yourself in a bar (Viva la France!!), how to tell the taxi driver that he is going so fast that you are going to throw up, and on and on. But lots of useful stuff too, including phrases that a standard guidebook wouldn't think to tell you about.             Rick Steves' Spain 2010 with map3 reviews Rick Steves Avalon Travel Publishing, 2009 Wonderfully concise and accurate guide to Spain Highly recommended. I used the Rick Steves guide for a recent trip to Spain and found it invaluable. It is clearly written, entertaining, concise, and up-to-date. When I tried using a second travel guide in Barcelona, although it had more restaurants and hotels listed, I found the information was not as complete or as current. The Rick Steves guide is particularly useful if you have one to three ...             Rick Steves' France 2010 with map Rick Steves, Steve Smith Avalon Travel Publishing, 2009 You can count on Rick Steves to tell you what you really need to know when traveling in France.

Full of many details of the area and hints and tips on how to get the most out of your visit.             Rick Steves' Istanbul22 reviews Lale Surmen Aran, Tankut Aran Avalon Travel Publishing, 2009 I did not think I liked it until I was in Istanbul I bought 4 books - (can you tell that it was my first trip abroad). This book was the book that I thought I would like the least. It seems wordy and the pictures are not so good... That was until I was in Istanbul. In the first few days, we traveled with other books. But at the end of day 2 - I sat in the hotel room and began reading this book. Once I had a good idea of the city -this book was ...              search for books 2000-2009, adventures, america, amsterdam, athens, bruges, brussels, christmas, compleat, country, cross-country, dictionary, european, florence, france, french, handbook, highways, ireland, istanbul, italian, manual, peloponnese, procedures, step-by-step, through, travel, tuscany, two-lane, volkswagen books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
