3.0 out of 5 stars Too much with the spooky 29 Aug 2008
By Tahl - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
In general, I'm a big fan of the walks in Frommer's guidebooks. I think they're better-planned and better-described than in most other books, plus offer a nice mix of scenery, history, shopping, and eating along most walks.

Given that, I was disappointed when I browsed this book in the store. The page layout is nice, but a very high proportion of the walks seemed oriented to ghost stories, Jack the Ripper, and similar "spooky" or Gothic interests. Where are the historically-themed or literary walks? Also, while each walk seemed to have eating spots noted, I didn't see shopping mentioned. So, this book was a pass for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars I enjoyed walking through London! 27 May 2011

I found Frommer's 24 Great Walks in London, very informative, it has great pictures. There are maps for each area the walks cover and the details they give lets a traveler see and decide what they want to see when they get there -It was a great armchair vacation. for me. This is another Amazon Verified purchase for me, I always find what I'm looking for at Amazon.com

5.0 out of 5 stars AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME 18 Feb 2009
By N. Mastrantonakis - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I am right at the moment in London. I've done walks #18 and #19. Today I'm going on walk #13. I'm addicted to this book because it doesn't only guide you to go to the same old sites. Of course it recommends that you go into the Tower of London for example. However, this book focuses on items off the beaten path. I bought Frommer's London 2009 book as well, which guides you to all the most popular tourist destinations. Don't expect that from this book though. 24 Walks explains destinations in a very brief blurb. So, if you are looking for more extensive explanations and more popular places get the London 2009 book. If you want a more FUN and QUIRKY book, go for 24 Walks.

On a final note, I just want to say that the person(s) who wrote 24 Walks has explained every single turn and crossing you have to make in such detail that you cannot get lost, especially that each walk also comes with a very detailed map. I would also recommend that you do not only rely on this book for your trip to London. You will definitely benefit from the more basic London 2009 book. Use 24 walks as an added addition to London 2009.
