The Eyewitness Travel Guides are great if you want to learn more about another country and its culture.
I read the one on Great Britain and thoroughly enjoyed it. This one on “Italy,” seems to be just as good.
I have not used the Eyewitness Guides to plan a trip so I’m not sure how helpful they are for that.
The book is filled with maps, colorful photos and fascinating tidbits (historical and contemporary) of information.
Makes a good gift for those who love Italy and want to learn more about it.

I am planning a trip to Italy and chose this guide because of its good reviews. After reading it, I’m left disappointed. It seems to cover all its bases and is certainly full of useful information. Though this guide pretty much tells you about all the things you could do, it doesn’t tell you at all what you should do. I was looking for a book with recommendations about what to see, where to go, and what to eat. This book will not tell you that.

I must say that this guide was exactly what I needed, but also I must confess that another thing came up since I have been traveling to Europe for some time now. I didn’t realize or wasn’t even thinking about travel insurance?? I mean we all have insurance, that covers us while we are in the US, but not for traveling abroad. I recently planned a second trip to Germany, but wasn’t sure if my insurance company policy would take care of minor details in my policy for things I am not sure I have thought about. I am not saying I might or might not be covered, but I need peace of mind when it comes to my family. I then called my HR to find out general things about traveling abroad and “What would happen if” scenario’s. I wasn’t going to read my lengthy policy, even if I did I wouldn’t understand the legal double-talk anyway not being a lawyer and all.
My HR told me everything would be ok, and I shouldn’t worry. But some thing in the back of my mind said call again and asked the same questions to see if the results would be the same from another Representative, to my surprise, it was. Ok then, not feeling a warm feeling of confidence in my HR responses. I didn’t have much time to keep doing the research, so I looked up travel insurance and started to focus my attention on getting some basic package to cover me and family while we were abroad. There are a lot to choose from, but again this became confusing. So I came across http://www.securemytravelonline.com which had an aggregate of different well known insurance companies. I choose AIG with a basic plan and the rest was history. Also I didn’t know you can insure your travel and luggage also in case of theft, flight cancellation etc. I thought I would share something from one avid traveler to the next. Overall a GREAT Guide and I have bought another copy for my friend.
Take care.

I think that I am not alone when it comes to stating that these series of guides are among the best, if not the best of all travel guides. I’ve used them extensively and would never purchase any other.
