Product Description
Paris Directions fits neatly into your pocket and won't weigh you down on a short break. The full-colour introduction includes 28 themed spreads from "Monumental Paris" and "Secret walks and hidden gardens" to "Dead Paris" and "Gourmet Paris" to help you decide what to do, 24 hours a day. The main bulk of the guide, the "Places" section, consists of district-by-district coverage of the city, illustrated throughout. As well as sightseeing and transport info there are hundreds of smart and critically annotated listings of restaurants, bars, shopping and nightlife, all keyed to accompanying, easy-to-use maps. The language section has a useful menu reader and handy phrases to have you speaking a little French by the time you arrive.
From the Publisher
DIRECTIONS guides - the new travel series from Rough Guides - are an attractive and innovative new addition to the travel shelves this summer. Full of the detailed research you’d expect from a Rough Guide but with fewer pages, DIRECTIONS are stylish slimline pocket guides – perfect if you don’t want a big guidebook or you’re going away on a short break. Featuring fold-out colour maps for easy reference, a wealth of specially commissioned photography and – unique to Rough Guides – an e-book CD, DIRECTIONS launches with guides to Athens, Lisbon, London, Paris, San Francisco and Venice.
Set to revolutionise guidebooks, each DIRECTIONS guide comes with an e-book CD which contains the full content of the guide, allowing readers to search and annotate it on any computer or handheld device*. In addition, the 100s of web links are useful for making online reservations or finding out more about a particular attraction or festival before leaving home.
Add to this all the up-to-date information and irreverent attitude readers expect from Rough Guides at an affordable price and we can guarantee you’ll be as excited about DIRECTIONS as we are. From the best cafés in Paris and the most happening bars in San Francisco to London’s greatest museums and the cultural hotspots of Venice, DIRECTIONS are full of inspiring ideas to guide you on your way to discovering some of the world’s greatest destinations.
