Rick Steves` Pocket Guides are compact books to guide you through the best of a city with a number of self-guided tours, ideal for short trips. Published in the UK by Avalon, Rick Stevesโ€™ guides are predominantly targeted at an American market in terms of language, style and tone, yet they are valuable companions to European travellers. The author himself has comprehensively researched each title, lending the recommendations in the guides a personal air.

They feature Eating easy-to-scan charts with restaurant options, from cosy neighbourhood pubs to upscale global cuisine, and Sleeping recommendations on good-value hotels located close to sights and attractions. You will find an Essential Travel Information section to make your trip hassle-free with tips on avoiding crowds, saving money and using transports. Reference colour map extracts throughout the book locate sights and restaurants, and a foldout map will help you navigate the city on the go.
