5.0 out of 5 stars
Comprehensive and fun for a long weekend,
By
This review is from: Rome (DK Eyewitness Top 10 Travel Guide) (Paperback)
The top 10 theme works very well. There are the top 10 sights in Rome (eg. Pantheon, Colosseum etc) then there is a top 10 within each of those (ie top 10 sights at the Pantheon) - with full descriptions/details. It works so much better than the usual rambling descriptions you get in guide books. There is a top 10 Roman foods (Saltimbocca at number 1 - v. good) and wines - and numerous other categories. Full of very good photos and plenty of detail. Fun to use and authoritative. The maps were excellent.The book is very handy - fits easily into a pocket. It was preferable to a larger DK Rome guide which a friend happened to bring, in terms of accessing information quickly and easily. I hope they publish a lot more of the top 10 guides!

A must for all going to Rome!,
This review is from: Rome (DK Eyewitness Top 10 Travel Guide) (Paperback)
I have just been to Rome and i took this handy little book with me. I was only there for four days but i ate in a few of the recommended restaurants and they were all fantastic. The book also recommended the best ice cream in Rome and it really was the best ice cream i've ever had!! - anyone going to Rome really has to go there!! All of the top sites were magnificent however i don't think its really necessary for the book to point out that you should go to the pantheon and colleseum etc! If you're looking for a guide to the history of each of the sites then i would suggest taking a book that specifies in this. I used the book mainly for eating out as i always find it difficult to spot nice, less touristy restaurants in a new city. It also has the bus routes which are really handy, a small map of the city (not much detail of smaller streets) and some useful phrases and tips. Overall a very good buy and highly recommended for anyone going to Rome. =)

dont go roamin in Rome without...,
By C. C. R. Serjeant "roarkserjeant" (HOLMFIRTH, WEST YORKSHIRE United Kingdom) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Rome (DK Eyewitness Travel Guide) (Paperback)
As usual an excellent publication Eyewitness.Very comprehensive coverage by area in alphabetical order.Maps clear an concise especially with the enlarged section which is useful for walking about especially as it has a fold over book mark. Found the two part maps of the Forum East/west difficult to use as you tend to visit it in one go. When you use the Palatine map unless you enter by there suggested entrance it is quite hard to relocate I would definately buy one but i linked mine with an OXford Archaeological Guide by Amanda Claridge. Ate at some of the retaurants in the guide they were reliable,checked off some of the hotels it suggested but contacted hotels own websites for better deals.
