4.0 out of 5 stars Laminated Map of Paris, March 29, 2000

Very handy map of Paris. It has a overview of the city to the peripherique, then it has a large detailed section on the central districts and another section on monmartre and a metro map. The central district map shows the metro stations, museums,parks, one-way streets, pedestrian streets, churches etc. This is a laminated map so it folds out and folds back in a snap and you can write and erase on it with one of those erasable marker pens. It measures about 27" wide by 10" tall and is printed on both sides *Note: It shows pretty much every tiny street but not all the small streets are named. You'd need a separate street atlas if you needed to be able to look up any address in the city.

1.0 out of 5 stars Mapping out a reaction ... What a letdown., August 19, 2003

The fact that over the years I have used Lonely Planet publications with entire satisfaction and sometimes delight, merely increases my disappointment with this piece of cartographic mediocrity. From every conceivable point of view, it is awful. Any Paris department store gives out better tourist maps ... free.

Overall, this is an excellent map for getting around the city. It's a quick guide to all major points of interest. It is especially usefull in navigating the Metro, RER and bus system. We had absolutely no problems in finding every place we wanted to go and am very thankful we had this little gem!
