Moon Metro Rome

Summary: This is the book that we used every day in Rome
Review: This book does a great job of breaking the city into smaller maps that make it extremely easy to get around.

The maps are very clear and easy to read. Rome is a maze of little streets and other maps that we saw had street names overlapping each other and were very hard to read. This book breaks up the city into smaller large scale maps, you do not need a microscope to read them! Also you can just focus on one page at a time instead of having a huge map that you need to refold over and over.

Rome is so confusing that even city residents need a map. You WILL need a good map to get around the city. This book does the job wonderfully.

The maps are also laminated which makes them tough enough to handle the lots of opening and closing, the rain or even a spilled cappucino, very nice touch!

We will use this series next time we travel to a city that they make a guide for.

The only reason for the 4 stars is the book is light on info about 'sights' and focuses too much on shopping, restaurants and hotels. We needed a different book to get details on some of the things that we wanted to see.
