It is definitely a good book to have when planning a trip, and its colourful pictures and maps would no doubt be nice to look at for someone on a guided bus tour who already had their accommodation and restaurant meals planned. For two independent travellers we found the guidebook utterly frustrating. One major complaint is the maps, which, while glossy and colourful, are absolutely useless because they do not label all of the streets, making it very difficult to find restaurants and other listed attractions (we gave up more than once!). It seems like the writers do not actually expect anyone to follow up on the recommendations they make. Another case in point is the guidebook's information concerning the Dome of the Rock. While it provides a fairly good general overview to the site it does not give a list of opening times to an attraction that...Read more 17 of 17 people found the following review helpful:  See you in Jerusalem!, By This review is from: Fodor's Israel, 7th Edition (Full-color Travel Guide) (Paperback) Israel has long been considered one of the most fascinating and dynamic destinations in the world. Most travelers would think the task too great an undertaking for a travel guide. Not Fodor's! They took the challenge and surpassed all my expectations. I was fortunate to find such a well researched review. My clients are demanding and continually ask challenging questions that require the most dependable resources at my finger tips. Fortunately, this is it! This guide has been sectioned into the country's seven major regions and a general area titled "Experience Israel". I particularly appreciated how it covered topics that the typical visitor would want insight into such as: Israel's markets, local cuisine, religion, family travel, nightlife & the arts and of course, where to stay and what to do. The 7th Edition In Full Color guide includes 64 detailed maps, illustrated features and 265 color photos. It should be noted the photography is a...Read more 15 of 18 people found the following review helpful:  Very Well done, By Fenton Hardy "Fenton Hardy" (Boston) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Fodor's Israel, 7th Edition (Full-color Travel Guide) (Paperback) I spent some serious time flipping through the typical tourist books in regards to my month long business trip to Israel. I have read this book from cover to cover and I feel that the book is very well done and I would suggest others to consider it as well. The only reason that I did not give it 5 stars was due to a oversite regarding Jerusalem. Also, I think there could of been more info added. However, good book and I feel comfortable recomending this to others. Enjoy Israel, it is beautiful |
