Great guide for eating and drinking in Tuscany,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Taste of Tuscany (Eyewitness Travel Guides) (Paperback)
We went to Tuscany to eat well and drink wine. As vegetarians, we tend to plan for the "what to eat" angle thoughtfully before traveling. DK books are my favorites for travel because I like the mix of images and just enough text to get the information you really need. This book was no different than my usual satisfied experiences with DK travel books. While I may tear out relevant sections from other books to travel lighter, DK books always go with us intact, even if they're heavier due to the hard cover and better quality paper stock. It's worth it. This book was an unfailing guide for us while spending about 10 days in Tuscany, traveling throughout the region. It gave us new ideas for foods to seek, and background and cultural explanations are always appreciated. We visited during springtime, and we will take this book again while visiting Tuscany in the fall. Different foods, different flavors.

The greatest Tuscan guide for Foodies,
By Bob M. (Mt. Vernon, VA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Taste of Tuscany (Eyewitness Travel Guides) (Paperback)
Other volumes may tell you where to eat, but this book covers the foodstuffs and beverages as well. We used this book extensively on a 26 day trip through Tuscany. It filled in all the blanks. DK does it again!
