Customer Reviews

The Skrimp and the Splurge!

I just love this book! I love the layout where they recommend not only where to stay on budget but what are worthy of spending a little extra for. As a reasonably experienced international traveler I've learned that if you spend too little or too much you can wind up missing the place you've gone to see. Like Baby Bear's bed, this one is just right.

joy in paris

i recently returned from my first trip to paris. in preparation, i reviewed multiple guidebooks and took with me two. the four i considered most promising were let's go paris, rough guide paris, frommers paris from $90 and fodors paris.of these, after the trip, i must say that let's go paris was the most helpful with copious useful maps and tips, in addition to accurate and abundant recommendations on housing, dining and entertainment. frommers was the second most useful in planning and understanding the city.although i thought that the rough guide would be beneficial, the maps were limited in detail and annotation. also, dining etc was not listed by arrondissements which made searching very difficult.fodors was nice, but not particularly useful for the moderate income traveler compared to the others. frommers paris i briefly reviewed but found much less useful than this frommers guide.

Loved my adventures in Peru!!

Frommer's helped me to see so much of what I was hoping to see. With the planning that I was able to do with the guidebook, I experienced everything that I imagined the country could be and more. The detailed descriptions within the book helped me to pick out the venues that I knew I had to visit. And they were so beautiful....
