5.0 out of 5 stars The book that you want in your pocket, May 5, 2009

This review is from: Fodor's Amsterdam's 25 Best, 7th Edition (Full-color Travel Guide) (Paperback)

When you get off the plane at Schipol, this is the book you want in your pocket. Aside from the breezy overview and the tips for navigating this delightful city, the book includes a folding map that's water-proof, wipeable and compact. Even an afternoon at the Heineken brewery won't do it any harm.
By all means, read all you can before you go, including Fodor's guide to Amsterdam and Holland, but pack this in your carry-on and you'll be ready to enjoy the city as soon as you arrive.

I still had to do lots of research on the internet once I read this book. Just not enough was included.
