4.0 out of 5 stars Loaded with information, August 9, 2005

By	Chriss S. (Kansas City) - See all my reviews

I have used several different travel guides in the past, and the Eyewitness series is one of my favorites. They are colorful and loaded with images, but it's not just eye candy. The images shown are helpful to decide if an attraction interests me enough to actually visit it.

The maps are not the easiest to use because finding the referenced map is sometimes difficult. Once you learn the book's system it's not too bad. Some of the driving tour maps are to vague on info. The walking tour maps within a city are very good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great resource for travelers, September 30, 2005

We used an Eyewitness guide for our trip to London years ago and found it the most helpful of all the guidebooks we had purchsed. The real photos and accurate information made our first trip to Europe go very smoothly. As we plan our second trip, we have not been disappointed by the Amsterdam Eyewitness guide. Again, the striking photographs, maps, and well-organized information makes planning a trip a breeze. Our kids enjoy seeing the places we will visit.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best travel guide around, September 13, 2005

By	Alejandro - [e-mail] (Rosario, ARGENTINA) - See all my reviews

I've used some of the Eyewitness Travel Guides on a trip around Europe, they were so useful that when I came home I've bought some more. They are more than travel guides, they are also a souvenir. I totally recommend them. Great pictures, great 3D street maps with suggested routes, great explanations.
