 tour guide January 25, 2008
On our two week trip, the book was always with us. Being originally from Berlin, I still needed the updates form my time. In the Rhine and Bavaria areas we just followed Rick's advise and had a great time.
Perfect for everyone January 10, 2008
If you go anywhere without a Rick Steves book you are missing out. It has great directions, maps, and information about tourist attractions as well as restaurants and tours of the city. I would imagine a younger person would like more information about nightlife. Young or Old, the traveler will get tons of information for sites and dinning. Wouldn't go to Germany without it.
Through Germany's Backdoor December 5, 2007
We used this book to travel to southern Germany and Austria this past summer. We visited the medieval towns along the German Romantic Road including Rothenburg. At Mad King Ludwig's castle, we were surrounded by a sea of Rick Steves' guidebooks. Rick's tips were helpful as always. My only quibble with the book was the estimated drive times between destinations were very optimistic.

This guide provides two things that I really like and miss in other guides, off the beaten path sites/activities and adjustable itineraries based on the length of your trip. This book provides itineraries of what to do, what to see, how to do it and in what order. I highly recommend this book along with a standard "travel" guide for those occasions that you stray from his "plans". The days we followed his "guided" tours exactly, were the days my family enjoyed the most. We have been to Austria/Germany several times before this last trip when we used Rick's book. This book is like having a tour planned for you for $20 instead of thousands.

In selecting this book, I indicated I wanted a book about bicycling in Germany and Austria. I did not manage to get a thorough look at the index, but saw some rivers & towns mentioned and assumed that the book would cover the area that I was interested in.... it does not!
