Europe's major cities in this book.
Book is typical of Rick Steves' guides - full of lots of good information on sights, transportation, lodging, and places to eat plus useful general travel recommendations and helpful language phrases. This book only covers a few major cities or regions in each country If you want much more detail for visits outside the cities, buy the individual country guides. Thanks to all the good information in his Italy guide, I am now retired in Italy for 6 months a year and love the small town we choose. As an official Resident of Italy (like a US green card), I can stay as long as I want, can buy a car (only Residents can own cars there) and, best of all, be covered under the excellent national health care system in Italy. Because I did not spend my working years contributing the the health care system, I must pay a small annual fee to be covered, (only $300 per month for full coverage) I would give individual country guides a 5 star rating. This overall guide just cannot hold enough information for more in depth visits to any particular country.

I love Rick Steve’s travel maps and tour books!
My best friend of 54 years and I are turning 70 this year and have planned our big bang trip for two years now! Starting with three days in Amsterdam, then two in Stockholm followed by a 12 day Baltic cruise, three days in Paris; train to Munich, rent a car, visit my Mom’s family farm in Allmersdorf, drive to Vienna for a performance of the Lipizzaner Stallions at the Spanish Riding School, then on to Salzburg, Piper, Herrenchimsee, Eagles Nest, Neuschwanstein, then Munich for our flight home! Rick Steve’s maps and books have made planning this trip easy!

Rick Steves Best of Europe
It was a gift for a good friend who was spending two weeks traveling in Europe and she said it was extremely helpful. She loved the gift and recommended I buy one for myself if I ever decide to travel to Europe. I’m also a big fan of Rick Steves.
