- Great Book for Italy Travel
We used this book on our recent trip to Italy and it saved us a lot of Time and Money. Recommend this to anyone planning a trip to Italy.
Rating:
- "Rick Steves Most of Italy 2008" - he amputated the "foot".
Don't buy this if you expect to find information on the southern Italian mainland.
The map at the front of this book sums up its disappointing lack of coverage of southern Italy. The map stops at the Amalfi coast and does not show the "foot" part of the country. Rick Steves' Italian mainland ends at a line drawn between Paestum and Manfredonia. So .... no Lecce, no Matera, no Otranto - there's absolutely nothing on Puglia. Truncated map = truncated coverage.

- Rick Steves Italy 2008
Mr. Steves supplies a wealth of information for MOST of Italy, but unfortunately for those of us who desire to see Southern Italy, the book is not helpful. I would also like to suggest that Mr. Steves refrain from denigrating U.S. tourists. Many of us are well-seasoned travellers and can enjoy other cultures without the immature lectures offered by Steves.
Rating:
- Very limited coverage
What this guide covers it covers well but be forewarned that the title is a misnomer. Much of Italy is missing. Italy south of the Amalfi Coast on the West, nope. South of Ravenna on the Adriatic, nope. Sicily, nope. Sardinia, nope. To avoid disappointment make sure this guide covers the parts of Italy you plan to visit before you buy it.
Rating:
- Highly useful.
It takes a little use to get used to the basic order of the city-specific information (intro, sights, hotels, food + other info). After you do, though, the guide is AMAZING. The self-guided walks in Rome are not to be missed.
