Essential for a trip to Munich,
December 17, 2006 Lehigh History Student (Bethlehem, PA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Top 10 Munich (Eyewitness Top 10 Travel Guides) (Paperback)
If you are planning a short trip to Munich this is a must have book. It covers excellent restaurants and wonderful places to stop and shop. The essential sights are all listed by region and are explained in enough detail for one to decide if they want to visit. If you are going for a longer period of time I would recommend a bigger guide but I would still get this one to walk around with. If you are travling around the Bavarian alps region you will need another travel guide in addition to this one as it stays focused on Munich

Must have for your trip to Munich,

Guten tag!
DK Publishing is the leader in "Top 10" travel guides and their Munich edition is no exception. Accurate and easy to read maps, detailed train/metro line guides, and top 10 lists for nearly everything the city has to offer. I especially enjoy reading their recommendations for how many hours to plan for a museum/point of interest visit. This came in especially handy when visiting the Deutsches Museum. I originally planned to spend three hours there and ended up dedicating nearly an entire day based on the guide. The day was enjoyable and I was able to browse through all the exhibits - which were amazing and I recommend this museum if you are visiting Munich!
The guide is also handy to have as you take guided tours through the city. We all can't remember the names of the sights and the hundreds of facts behind them, but you can refer back later in your hotel or on your trip home.

Great for someone who has no time for research,

Every time I go to Europe, I spend a great deal of time researching the sights I want to see, so a book like this is redundant for me. However I gave it to my son who was traveling with friends abroad, and they loved it. They thought they hit the high points of the city and went out of their way to thank me for it.
