Reviews:
"The new look Insight City Guide to Paris was informative, easy to follow and well presented. The Paris metro plan was ideally placed in the back inside cover, and I used this throughout my exploration of the city. The leaves at the front and back of the book provided excellent bookmarks to the sections I chose to follow, and made it easy to refer to the sections whilst on the move. The Best Of section was an excellent starting point when planning my visit, and I found the cross referencing of places with numbers on the maps very helpful. Similarly the practical information showing opening times, nearest metro station, and whether there was an entry charge provided key information at a glance. High quality maps and a range of informative photographs provide inspiration and a glimpse of what lies ahead for the intrepid explorer! The Insight City Guide did not disappoint and as ever this series of guides is always my first choice when planning a holiday visit."
