User Reviews about The Little Black Book of Florence & Tuscany 2009 (Travel Guide) (The Little Black Books)

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. -- happy Traveller

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. -- Practical guide

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. -- Little Black Books are Great!
