Knopf Mapguide: Paris
Read the ReviewsUser Review:
- Very handy for travelersI travel abroad a lot. This is the best style of map guide I have found. It's small enough to carry around, but you don't have to open up a full map and figure out how to refold it again while standing in the street. The only thing it lacks is street listings. User Review: - Perfect size guide bookA handy sized guide to take along in my purse without feeling weighted down. The fold out maps are very nice but I would like to have had just one blank page for writing extra notes! User Review: - Indispensable!I absolutely love this guidebook. Its format is extremely convenient: small enough to fit in a purse or a coat pocket, yet detailed enough to provide most of the information you need. The small fold- out maps cover the entire city and are easy to read. There is information about services such as bank opening times. It lists places to stay, shop and eat according to one's budget (the choices are very good) and of course what to see. My very favorite feature is the subway map in back of the book, a must if you want to get around inexpensively and efficiently. I wouldn't dream of going to Paris without it! User Review: - This book saves lives!Well OK, not lives, but it made a first time visit to Paris in June 2007 even more wonderful than it already was! We went to Paris as a family group of eight as the last part of a trip that also included Madrid and Barcelona. This book and its companion edition on Barcelona were extremely helpful and up to date. The beginning overview easily segues into the separate detail maps of different sections of the city. They are large enough to show street level detail in print large enough to be read without reading glasses. They are easily read in dim light, stiff enough to be read in a breeze and small enough to be somewhat covert (that is, it isn't obvious to everyone within a block that you don't know where you are). The metro and train maps at the back are accurate and a real helpful and thoughtful addition to each book. The entries on attractions, restaurants, shopping, and music were well written, accurate and up to date. We did not encounter listed places that were out of business or at great variance as to price. User Review: - A great seriesI find this series very helpful when I travel. they're small enough carry around and accurate/detailed enough to actually be helpful. A great design Next page of reviews >
