Compact and helpful

Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2007

This book offers worthwhile information to a range of different readers. The first pages, "Four great days," offer itineraries for art lovers, shopping fans, history buffs, or families with kids to please. I don't think anyone will stop there, but I imagine many readers starting with those day-trips and filling in the edges.

The rest of the book presents the city in lush photography, legible maps, and clearly organized descriptions. The part of the book (about two thirds) divides Amsterdam into seven geographical districts. For each, the reader gets a bit of history and general layout, followed by detailed descriptions of many attractions. The remainder of the book talks about out-of-town points of interest and general information about food, culture, and other helpful travel information.

I'm going to Amsterdam soon on business, and have just a little time to enjoy this amazing city. This guide has been very helpful in planning those scraps of free time. Maybe this book won't meet every traveler's needs, but it meets mine.

Excellent book, but...

Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2005

Verified Purchase

I am giving this book 5 stars because I think it does an excellent job covering the city of Amsterdam. The illustrations are fantastic, the tips are helpful, all of the major points of interest are covered (and then some) and it is up-to-date. I'm a big fan of the Eyewitness travel guides, and this book certainly won't come as a disappointment to those who are familiar with their books.

However, be warned that this book isn't much more than a subset of "Eyewitness Holland". If you already own their book on Holland, you don't need this because everything that's included in this book is in the Holland book. The pages may be mixed up a bit, but don't be fooled - I went through both books side-by-side and it's pretty much identical. Unless you plan on staying exclusively in Amsterdam (why?), I would suggest going with the 'Holland' book for a few bucks more. But whatever you do, don't buy both as I did!

perfect for a whirlwind trip

Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2014

My husband and I went on a guided tour of Amsterdam, Bruges, Brussels and Paris- in 5 days so this book was perfect! I carried it everywhere and we could learn more about the highlights we were seeing or if we had a few hours to our selves then we knew what to do! Not sure I would recommend if you had more time but for us they were perfect!

If you are heading to Amsterdam - this is a must have!

Great Book. I used it allot when I traveled to Amsterdam last April. It is informative, has plenty of pictures, City history and extra helpful tidbits useful to traveling. The only downside - the print is just a little too small for my older eyes. But I''m still glad I got it.

Great photos of the places you see in person but can't have access to take the picture. There is a series so you can have many cities and countries in your collection. I'm looking forward to trying the ebooks to see how they compare.

Amsterdam travel guide

Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2006

This is my 3rd or 4th Eyewitness guide that I have purchased. They give you a lot of info in a compact book. It includes not only points of interest but also provides the "must see". Each guide also includes maps, mass transit, translation of phrases, restaurant, hotel, and general tips to make your trip more enjoyable and safer.

Exactly what I ordered It covers everything you can think of .... I use this brand whenever I go to another country I bring it with me . I reference it on trains and while traveling its great a private tour guide and know it for the area it says.

The book has some useful information hut I suggest you save the money and use websites such as TripAdvisor to research Amsterdam - and other cities.

This guide was of great use when we we wrote a recent treasure hunt for Amsterdam, with the aid of this guide we were able to go into Amsterdam understanding the City better and the layout, also we knew what to look for. There are useful maps and write ups on the various areas, photos and street plans are good. Highly recommend this guide.
