Book Reviews of Rick Steves' Spain 2008 (Rick Steves)Book Review: As always, Rick gives great advice Summary: 5 StarsThe book was great for our trip to spain. We are always able to see much more than if we went without the book
Book Review: A Helpful guide to Spain Summary: 3 StarsI used this book and found helpful information. In Madrid the two restaurant suggestions near our hotel were great. I was disappointed to find no information on Valencia. There is a reference to a website but that is after the fact once you are travelling. Also, the great buildup for Nerja at the Costa del Sol is not justified. We were at Torremolinos and thought we must go to Nerja since it was so fondly written about. However, we were extremely disappointed and the water quality was inferior to where we were. And it takes hours to get there by train and bus. I guess any travel book is good once you go for the second time, but, many of the references to places were confusing to me on a first time visit and I missed doing all that I wanted.
Book Review: Full of great info! Summary: 5 StarsI always use Rick's books when traveling Europe! He is very detailed & walks you thru every step of your trip!
Book Review: arriba - rick steves' spain book ROCKS like Gibraltar! Summary: 5 Starsi'm thrilled with the purchase of our first rick steves travel book. his website and tv shows are VERY informative and practical and this 2008 book on Spain does not disappoint. it's not too clunky to take with us on our travels - yet, for day trips, we're photocopying a few "walking tour" pages so we don't have to take the book with us when we're travelling lighter. ... while he doesn't highlight EVERY inch of spain, he surely hits all the highlights! NO complaints and we look forward to experiencing more of the world through his expertise!
Book Review: Good Summary: 3 StarsGood book with good comments. Maps are useful but could be more detailed. I generally also like more pictures.
