Rick Steves' Germany 2010 with map


by: Rick Steves
Very detailed guide especially for Munich and Berlin.We were able to self guide much of the time. Many of the historical sights were hard to find and would have been impossible to see without the guide. Rick was very accurate and up to date with what was happening in that particular city. Best purchase we made! Would buy any of his guides in the future.

Frommer's Germany 2010


by: Darwin Porter, Danforth Prince
We have always liked Frommers and have subscribed to his "Budget Travel" magazine for some years now. In unfamiliar areas we like having a second opinion on lodging from [..] and Frommers fits the bill. More thorough that Rick Steves guides (which we heavily rely upon)... Unfortunately,as a result of the size we usually "tear out" sections before we leave rather that take the whole guide book with us.

Germany


by: Andrea Schulte-Peevers, Kerry Christiani, Marc Di Duca, Anthony Haywood, Catherine Le Nevez, Daniel Robinson
Good maps, good technical information for trains and services... but very poor information on history, on culture, on art. This guide seems to be made for the average vulgar tourist who wants to have an standard-correct-hedonist trip, without caring for deep things. Useful if you need practical information about trains, subways, fees. The rest is nothing.
