"Yet another in the excellent DK series. Lots of pictures, maps, simple straighforward descriptions. The best series for planning what you're going to do and see on a trip. Other series (Frommers, Rick Steeves, etc.) are better at describing the logistics, hotels, restaurants, etc. This is the one we take with us when we travel - the rest get left at home."
"I just love these Eyewitness guides, they are so colourful and vibrant. I bought this prior to my latest trip to Paris and found it so much better and more useful that other giudes I have used in the past. There is so much history and detail in it that I found places that I didn't know about despite several previous visits.
The book is split into really easy to follow sections - basically the diffrerent quarters (i.e. The Latin Quarter, Le Marais, Monmartre, The Opera Quarter etc). At the beginning of each section there is a small map of Paris at the bottom of the page highlighting where it is in relation to the other areas and then over the page a more detailed map of the sites in that area with snippets of info. The following pages go into more detail about various sites, buildings etc. It's choc full of so many things I wanted to cram into my weekend but alas some will have to be saved for another trip (any excuse!).
There is also loads of info on the best places to eat (again by area, and also price), different types of shops, markets etc as well as all the practical info about getting around and underground and overground maps. I read the whole things from start to finish before I left for Paris becuase I found it so interesting as a book as well as just a city guide.
I highly recommend this book - perfect for planning and drooling over."
"Best photos and maps. Makes anyplace look beautiful, and how can you miss with Paris. Combine with the helpful tips from Rick Steves (who does drawn maps)."
