The only travel guide you will need

Rick Steves travel books are my favorite go to when traveling to European cities. What do I love ? Everything about it . The book is broken down by cities and is intended for you to rip them out so you’re not lugging a book around with you. His walking tours are my favorite ! They have a starting point and lead you through the city. He always has various stops that he suggests along the way . The walks contain everything from the history of various monuments, churches buildings along the way to different places to stop and eat, etc. it is by far my favorite thing to do. I love his restaurant recommendations. I love how he talks about the culture and what is normal and not normal. His tidbits are always informative and extremely helpful, especially in a new country. His recommendations are usually spot on and I trust them and rely on them. Read more
