4.0 out of 5 stars Athens Guide Book, October 31, 2000
By ed jenkinson (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Blue Guide Athens (Paperback)
This book is so pertinent for those people who are going to Athens, the capital of Greece. It is much more comprehensive about the city than the Blue Guide to Greece, which is great if you plan to stay in the city for awhile. Its commentaries are easy to read and understand and give you a full view of what to expect. Get it if you can.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than going on a tour., March 21, 2007
By Marco (Sydney, NSW Australia) - See all my reviews
I just returned from spending a week in Athens and used this guide the entire time. It is a fantastic personal guide for the whole city, taking you to all the ancient sites as well as the more different places. The book explains the history of the sites, and then tells you almost stone-for-stone what you are looking at for each site. There are wonderful parts of Athens I would have missed had I not had this book with me. It also goes through places outside Athens, such as the sites at Sounion and Eleusis.

If you're interested in ancient history (and especially archaeological sites), then you can't do better than to take this guide with you to Athens.
