5 out of 5 stars Little Black Books are Great!   October 3, 2009

The Little Black Book on Tuscany is just right. It is the right size to take along, it gives good directions and information on things and places to visit, and for my older eyes, the font is legible.

I have other guide books that are more comprehensive, and with great color drwaings and photos, but they are too large to fit in a pocket, and increase the weight of my baggage. I look at them at home for planning, then take the Little Black Book with me.



5 out of 5 stars A practical and 'user friendly' information on where to go, what to see, things to do, and places to eat and shop   April 10, 2009

Of all the popular travel destination in Italy, none rank higher than the Renaissance cities and the rolling countryside of Florence and Tuscany. That's why "The Little Black Book Of Florence & Tuscany" (the newest addition to the outstanding pocket travel guide series of 'Little Black Books' from Peter Pauper Press) is a 'must' for any business traveler or vacationer to those two colorful and history laden communities. Enhanced with the inclusion of eight fold-out maps and a wealth of 'insider tips' makes this highly portable, enthusiastically recommended, 256-page compendium of practical and 'user friendly' information on where to go, what to see, things to do, and places to eat and shop. An indispensable resource for planning itineraries and getting the most out of a visit, whether it be an extended weekend or a lengthy vacation stay.

Essential information on travel in the region of Tuscany, especially in Florence. Compactness makes this a great selection for taking with you in your purse or pocket. I expect to use this guidebook every day that my cousin and I are in Tuscany. Note: I have been to Florence before; for the first timer, this would be a wonderful guidebook. For me, there is still a great deal of useful information on Florence, as well as the essentials for travel in other parts of Tuscany where I have not been before.

Definitely a must have! And so packable. The pull out maps provide great guides and the information concise thus covers what one needs to know.


5 out of 5 stars A great little black book   August 23, 2010

My sister and I used this book while traveling through Tuscany. It was a great find. It's tiny which made it easy to carry along each day and the brief description of each Tuscan village provided just enough information for us. Although I often used larger travel books, this one was perfect. Too bad there aren't more available for different parts of the world.
