Great Guide to find special places
We actually used this guide as our main guide through northestern italy. We find some amazing retsuarnts and hotels, ones you wouldn't know from the o utside. Some restaurants you absolutely need to know Italian, it seemed like they never saw a tourist before. The maps in the book are not very good, and don't show most of the places mentioned. Have a very good other,...

Great Guide to find special places,
By michael m sauter (Ann Arbor, MI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Touring In Wine Country: North East Italy (Paperback)

Some restaurants you absolutely need to know Italian, it seemed like they never saw a tourist before. The maps in the book are not very good, and don't show most of the places mentioned. Have a very good other, an up-to-date map.Just one word about the region: super wines, not many you will be able to purchase in the states.

How can this book not include Valpolicella?,
By An Italian wine lover (California, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Touring In Wine Country: North East Italy (Paperback)
Generally, I've been pleased with this series of books -- they are very useful and informative for a wine lover travelling in any region and we have used them often. However, this book on Northeast Italy does not include the Valpolicella winegrowing region near Verona -- which produces the best red wines in Northeast Italy! It includes other winegrowing areas in the Veneto, so how can they leave out Amarone and Valpolicella?
