3 comments about Fodor's Berlin's 25 Best, 5th Edition (25 Best).

1. This book fits nicely in your hand and, being color-coded by area, is easy to flip through when you're in a particular part of the city and need to look something up quickly. Despite being in Berlin for roughly 48 hours, I made quite a dent in the list of 25 "must-sees" and now I know what to aim for the next time.



2. This product is drastically overpriced for what it delivers. It is shallow and simplistic and will do little or nothing to enhance your Berlin visit. I put it in the trash after only a day!



3. I had three books for my trip to Berlin and this was the only one I used. It has a handy map of the city that fits in the cover; a map of the U-bahn, great photos and description by area. The walking tours for each area are great too. The perfect size to take along- indispensable.

1 comments about Munich Spiral Guide (Aaa Spiral Guides).

1. Fantastic travel book...led me to interesting sights I would not have found on my own or with other guide books. The restaurant recommendations were also very good. Convenient sized book, easy to carry. Really liked how the chapters were arranged by key sections of the city, made it easy to thoroughly explore Munich! Have used the AAA Spiral Guide for Berlin and just bought the guide for Amsterdam.

5 comments about Frommer's Budapest & the Best of Hungary.

1. I am looking forward to visiting places that have been described in the book. This is our first trip to Budapest.



2. We bought both this and the Lonely Planet guide for our trip to Budapest and lived by this book! I think the Lonely Planet guide is more for students backpacking across Europe, this is for the traveler not interested in only spending $20/day in Budapest. The recommendations were top notch, with the top attractions listed actually living up to the billing. All the restaurant reviews were dead-on, we ate at mostly reviewed restaurants and never had a bad meal. It felt like everyone in Budapest spoke English, so you really don't need a Hungarian dictionary, but it would be helpful if the back of the book had a slightly larger translation listing of foods, some important words like "liver" aren't included and can be a shock, especially in a pastry!



3. Very helpful, I don't think we would have been able to get around Budapest without it! We also went to a couple of the restaurants that were recommended, and we were quite pleased with those as well. The maps were all very useful as well.



4. This seems extremely helpful (though I haven't taken the trip yet, so won't be sure for another couple of months). It has made planning my days in Budapest much easier and given me some insight into what to expect culturally.



5. Disapointment is the only word I have for all Budapest travel guides that I have purchased. I am anger at Fromer's inconsistency. I purchased a Venice book that had great maps, etc... This book was boring. No thrills.
   Go to Budapest and re-write this book. Try a map or 2.
