This review is from: Rick Steves Paris 2016 (Paperback)
This is the absolute BEST Paris guidebook. Just spent a week there for the first time. Scanned it before, on the plane, and ended up carrying this around ALL the time. Very conveniently sized, easy to hold in one hand, fits in any small bag, felt totally safe walking around and using this as a reference. Nice color maps up front and other maps throughout make it easy to find your way around. Complete index. Exceedingly handy tab descriptors on all pages make is easy to flip through and find what you’re looking for. Excellent advice and insight to metro, walking on your own tours, bus/boat/bicycle tours, sights, museums, neighborhoods, eating, sleeping, money, language. What to do if you have one, two, or three days. Walking guidance on how to see the highlights of the Louvre in two hours–which was perfect! I didn’t use them, but there are also sections on Paris with children and a half dozen day trips. I even read parts of it to natives when they wanted to know what they were looking at (e.g., Pere Lachaise). All in all, totally indispensable. Highly recommended.
