Summary: Fun and Helpful
Comment: I loved the witticisms and the good advice. My only complaint is that it is a bit big to carry around.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Excellent, Information Guide
Comment: This guide gives up-to- date informative information for the traveler visiting London for the first time. The tips, especially if you are traveling on a budget, are very helpful. I would recommend this , or any of his guides, if you are planning on traveling abroad.

Summary: Enough Already
Comment: I've had it with the Rick Steves Groupie crowd. We just came back from a month long trip in Europe and the only people anyone with the Rick Steves guides are meeting are other Americans with the same guidebooks. They all eat in the same restaurants and they all go to the same places. Europe Through the Back Door? Not hardly. It's Europe through the SAME door. Read a guidebook before you go somewhere, but leave it home. Have a small pocket map of some sort along with you and then ASK questions from locals when you get there. The whole idea of travel is to meet new people, enjoy a different culture and have some fun. The purpose is NOT to check things off a "to see" list.

Summary: The inside scoop
Comment: This book has been the most helpful of the three I ordered. I am looking forward to carrying it around London. His comments are always down to earth, just like his tv series. I know his information is current and is in common language that is easy to understand.

Summary: Great Book
Comment: This book saves you lots of time and energy planning a trip. Steves even walks you through museums down to every corridor. Great book - we would have been lost without it!
