I am an American who traveled last year to Tukey and Tunisia. I discovered the Footprint guides first for Tunisia, and must say they are the best guidebook I have used for travel. They provide not only the info on where to stay and eat, but hands down have the best historical information I have seen in a travel guide. When I travel someplace new, I want to learn about what I am seeing and Footprints does not dissapoint. With few exceptions, the book gave much better information than the guides we were with. From now on, any time I travel, I will check and see if Footprint makes a guidebook for the area. I woulnd't even bother with the offers to get other books if you get this one. The footprint guide is all you need.

If you are a history buff, you'll like this book. If you're not a history buff...and I am not... you will simply feel buffeted. The amount of historical references were overwhelming and the print is miniscule. I wanted practical suggestions for getting around and recommendations for how, when, and where to enjoy Turkey's beauties.
