5.0 out of 5 stars SUBWAY MAP WAS GREAT!!!, May 22, 2004
By 
Michael Sharp (Copperas Cove, Texas United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Frommer's Tokyo (Paperback)
I got the 7th edition of this book and I thought it was great! I lived in Tokyo for over 7 months and I used the book all the time to get around! I would map out my destination on the subway map and follow it all the way there and back! The directions that I got for each walking tour were great...minus one little spot, the Yanaka walking tour was nice until the last stop. But other than that I thought the directions were spot on giving which exit to leave the subway and giving prices for everything. The book is kind of thick for daytime travel but all the info was great. One of the bars that I frequented, the owner saw I had pulled out the book told me of the woman who came in to verify the info. I loved it and am so glad I got it! I'm sure to take it back with me when I go back in a few months.

4.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive, but not for the directionally-challenged, June 20, 2000
With straight-forward descriptions and commentary (typical ofFrommer's guides), this is a very comprehensive guide to Tokyo. I'vespent the past 6 weeks living and working in Tokyo, using this book to guide my weekend adventures. The places/attractions, etc. I've visited--based on Frommer's Tokyo suggestions--have even impressed coworkers (Tokyo natives). Two drawbacks: The maps are a bit lacking and the "walking tour" directions are a bit confusing, even for those who are not directionally-challenged. Note: I also purchased the Frommer's Japan guide and after comparing its Tokyo section to the Frommer's Tokyo guide, I realized that the Japan guide is equally comprehensive. END

5.0 out of 5 stars Invaluable Guide, February 23, 2008
This review is from: Frommer's Tokyo (Frommer's Complete Guides) (Paperback)
My daughter and I used the 9th Edition of Frommer's Tokyo on our recent trip to Japan. We found it to be well written, easy to use with very down to earth suggestions. Since neither of us had any prior knowledge of Tokyo, it was invaluable. We had a most enjoyable week, but we wouldn't have had so many wonderful experiences without this guide.
