5.0 out of 5 stars A "must have" if traveling in Italy., November 23, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Michelin Green Guide: Italy (Michelin Green Tourist Guides (English)) (Paperback)

Michelin's Green Guides are essential if traveling in Europe. The Italy Green Guide is colorful, detailed, and very informative. There are numerous maps that are easy to follow and the practical information at the back of the book is extremely helpful. Michelin's 3-star rating system is unmatched and makes it easy to prioritize your trip. I particularly enjoyed the background and historical info. for Milano and Firenze. I highly recommend it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Accurate, but too small for navigation., October 18, 2006

This review is from: Michelin Italy (Michelin Maps) (Map)

One of the reasons we love Italy so much is that the land is so intimately settled: tiny complex towns hug the terrain, cities are assembled of ten thousand tiny jigsaw pieces, and roads meander according to long-forgotten whims. The only perfect map is coterminous with the land, but whereas a useful map of the American midwest can be very small indeed, a useful map of gem-like Italy really needs to be very, very big. Many of the features that make Italy so appealing are too small to show up on most maps. Unfortuantely for me, I depended on this map to navigate the country lanes of Tuscany last week, and it failed totally. It is far too small. It's even too small for finding Autostrada exits with any certainty. It's almost useless, actually, except for the longest trips between big cities. I highly recommend the Michelin spiral-bound book map for navigating in Italy. Its format is more convenient for car travel, it is just as accurate and legible, and it has the level of detail you'll need to avoid spending your whole trip lost and frustrated. I also recommend supplemental detailed city maps. Better yet, don't drive in Italy at all. It's insane. Especially plan to walk or take cabs in towns and cities. Cazzo!

This review is from: Michelin Italy (Michelin Maps) (Map)

Nicely laid out map, however I did not realize it would be in Italian, so that made it a little trickier to read. I also was hoping for detailed maps of the cities, but the back was blank.
