National Geographic Traveler: Rome, Second Edition

If you've never been to Rome and this is your first trip, or you've been before and are looking for new and different things to do, then this book is for you. Well organized and laid out, you can't go wrong with this travel guide. I've been to Rome over a dozen times, and I had never read this travel guide. I purchased it, planning on returning to Rome before the summer, and learned a lot about the Eternal City that I hadn't known before!

Packed with lots of information on various sites as well as suggestions for restaurants and hotels. If you're looking for a lot of choice when it comes to where to eat/stay, this might not be the best book as it is very methodical and focuses more on exploring the city than on giving its readers suggestions on places to eat/stay. If that's what you're looking for, purchase the Lonely Planet Rome. This book is loaded with maps and photos and breaks the city down into manageable chunks.

Excellent guidebook! You...Read more

Very fun book to read and I have learned some more information in this book after visiting Rome 2 times. It has some good maps and covers a lot of areas of Rome.

The book has enough pictures and information. was very useful in our trip to Italy in May 07
