Format:Paperback
Towns are in alphabetical order so they can be looked up very easily. Any town worth stopping in is listed so it is easy to look up towns around the popular tourist sites to determine if you would like to visit them, or not. Therefore, it is excellent if you are taking a driving tour, as you can look up any town that you will pass along your way. There are two large maps at the front that show places of great interest (even ones that are not so touristy) and great drives. The information is interesting without being too wordy. You'll know what the importance of the place is without carting around the full history of the place. However, it still gives you enough information that you won't feel like you missed something. My family has found it to be invaluable, especially if you plan to spend a great length of time in Germany.

michelin travel book on germany
6 Mar 2001
Format:Paperback
The tour book is full of information, color illustrations, maps, information that many tour books are without. The book has flaps that can be used as markers. The information is excellant in comparison to frommer, fodor, and lost planet. They include history of the country, even detailed information on the smaller towns, places to stay, activities and even shopping for the female readers. I feel this is the best guide for germany.

Best all around touring guide for Germany
14 Oct 2000
Format:Paperback
I often use Green Guides for their ratings, maps (country, regional, driving tours, city, town), site descriptions, historical information, ease of use, and overall accuracy. Since the quality of these guides is so consistent I do not typically feel that reviews are necessary. You always know what you're getting when you buy a Green Guide.
I am writing this review because the Germany Green Guide is particularly exceptional. Since there are no supplemental regional guides for Germany, the country guide is packed with information for all regions. This contrasts with the France and Italy country guides, which are superficial and significantly less useful than the regional guides for those countries.
Particular strengths of this book include the itineraries for driving scenic roads, such as the Moseltal, Schwarzwald Crest Road (particularly the southern parts), and the German Alpine Road. The maps highlight (and rate with stars) amazing sites along the way, including waterfalls, spectacular views and panoramas, villages, churches, museums, castles, hiking trails, etc. Required touring times are usually provided. Depending on schedule and interests you can easily plan your time.
If your visit to Germany will be limited to Berlin, Munich, and a bus tour to Neuschwanstein, then this book is overkill. But, if you want to explore more of Germany on your own then this guide is essential.

OK map - but lacks detail
31 Jan 2010
Format:Map|Amazon Verified Purchase
The map is OK for a general overview of roads in Germany; however, detail is lacking. The best option is to purchase a Germany map that is specific to an area, such as Bavaria, that will show ALL the roads for the area you are traveling in. This map was most useful when used to confirm that my rental car GPS system was pointing me in the correct direction.
Probably the best option is to use this map as a backup before leaving the USA and then buy a map at a local Esso (truck stop) when in country - one that will provide better details of roads, towns.
