5.0 out of 5 stars Detailed, but extremely easy to use - essential... 2 May 2008
By Ben VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
If time is tight, or you just like to arrive at a holiday destination very well prepared, a guidebook is a valuable and important investment. So choosing the right one is crucial.

Whilst I suspect that "Time Out" and "Lonely Planet" books probably sell in greater volume, having looked through them both I'm extremely glad I opted instead to use this Eyewitness Travel Guide for my recent trip to Paris. It helped me make the most of my trip.

As with most guidebooks this breaks down Paris into a series of districts - but then very clearly labels the key attractions, how to find them and even proposes short walks that will enable you to get the most out of your time in that area.

Accepting that flicking between pages as you try to find different streets, where to eat, where the nearest Metro station is (etc etc!) is a fact of life, the Eyewitness Guide makes all that extremely straightforward so navigating your way round each section is a breeze.

Also, unlike a number of other guidebooks, aside from numerous photographs this guide provides immensely useful illustrations of key attractions. So you don't find yourself pouring over endless pages of text - as a guide it's therefore clear and very easy on the eye.

All in all, this is probably the guidebook I've found the easiest to use and would highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars An indispensable companion 1 Feb 2001
By michellemiller100@hotmail.com
Format:Paperback
This book became our bible when we were last in Paris. It's packed full of useful and interesting information. As we love our food and wine, we found the information on restaurants especially invaluable. We ate at four excellent restaurants featured in the DK book: the menu, price, description and location were all accurately described in the book. I would recommend this book to anyone. When I travel to Prague next month I will definately be buying the DK's Travel Guide to Prague - I am sure that DK will provide the same accurate and interesting information.

5.0 out of 5 stars Informative, easy access information, best guide and metro m 21 April 2002
By Mrs RE Milbank
Format:Paperback
This was the simplest guide to take with us to Paris. It has an extremely good metro map and beautifully illustrated, informative, concise information. The bliss of it was only having to carry one not very heavy item which was both a guide and a very detailed map of Paris. The history items were clear and helpful. We had two days to do an awful lot and were picking out certain areas to visit. The Eyewitness Travel Guide to Paris really made it possible including a long desired visit to the abbey church of St Denis. I would recommend this to anybody on a day trip or longer to Paris.

4.0 out of 5 stars Love Paris!
The information given in this book is fantastic, but as I am nuts about history as well perhaps a few more details about the history of the places included would make it better.
