AA Essential Guides I have always found to be excellent and this guide to Malta and Gozo keeps up the standard, easy to access practical information and maps you can dip in and out of as needed, while still giving you a good overview of the history and culture of the islands.

Take this guide with you.

AA CityPack New York (AA CityPack Guides)

In many respects it is hard to fault this pocket sized guide to one of the great cities of the world. It contains a wealth of information, and I particularly liked the fold-up map in the back, although I rarely had to get it out of the plastic wallet because the chapter by chapter, district by district maps are so good. It is hard to imagine how you could get much more into such a small book. The focus is on Manhattan, but it does dip into Brooklyn and Queens.

There is, however, quite an emphasis on shopping, restaurants and hotels over information on tourist attractions, and I did miss the exploded map views and pictures of the iconic artworks etc that you get in the DK "Eyewitness" series - hence just the four stars. I am, ... Read More:

Vancouver and Canadian Rockies (AA Spiral Guides)

Childrens Toy Shop > Travel > AA Travel Guides
by: Tim Jepson

August 31, 2000
I liked: most of the pictures, the fact it's spiral bound and therefore stays open when you want it to, some of the walks, the attempt at prioritisation of things to do/see, the sections on "do X in Y days" and the fact that it covered the Rockies as well as BC.

I didn't like: the level of detail, which I found poor, the fact that the things to do/places to stay/places to eat sections were landscape while the rest of the book was portrait (and ran over 2 pages which made it confusing to read), the lack of info on routes and driving in Canada. I found my Rough Guide to Canada much more useful and more detailed on BC and the Rockies even though it covered the whole of the country.

Worth getting only if you think "Canada's ... Read More:

I bought this after booking a last minute deal to Menorca. The information and maps were invaluable. Ut was easy to understand and let us plan our last minute holiday quickly and easily. It provided a good reference for local information and pointed out the main tourist sights. We packed so much into our week because of this little guide! We had a really enjoyable holiday, much more ueful thean the information left by the holiday rep at our appartment. It's slimline design means that it fits into a handbag for easy reference whilst out and about.

An excellent guide to Rome for those on a weekend break. The top 25 sights guide is an excellent way of cherry picking the delights of the city.

We always buy guide books for a place before going on holiday, and usually only actually make use of a few pages once we get there.
This book was different - it was accurate, relevant, interesting and a constant reference. We followed driving and walking tours in it which were accurately detailed and showed us things we wouldn't have otherwise seen/noticed. Will always look for books from this series in future.
