5.0 out of 5 stars
Absolutely Fabulous,
By A Customer
This review is from: New York's 100 Best Little Places to Shop (Paperback)
This book saves a ton of time and footache by narrowing down the shops to visit. I personally love all of City & Company's New York Guide books. Each personalized little volume contains more useful information for savvy travellers than Frommer's or Fodor's. They tell you only the best places to see and the best things to do, without wading through all the general tourist nonsense. The thing I loved most about this book is that it grouped shops by area and gave useful information such as what else is nearby. The store descriptions were very informative. I highly recommend this book, along with FYI Fashion Source, for anyone interested in shopping NYC to its fullest!

I wish I would of had this book the first time I went to New York City! Not only will this book save you a lot of time from walking, but it also can help you plan where you need to spend your time. The stores are grouped by area, and this book will also tell you what else is nerby. I definitely would recommend this book to anyone visiting the city!

Don't bother if you've already bought a Fodor's NYC guide,
By WiscGirl (Racine, WI United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: New York's 100 Best Little Places to Shop (Paperback)
I purchased this book at the same time with Fodor's 2002 Guide to NYC. Fodor's had most, if not all, the stores listed with accompanying maps plus Fodor's did a better job with identifying the out-of-the-way bargain shops. Save your money and just buy one or the other.
