AAA Spiral Guide: London

Rating:
Summary: An A+ for AAA
Review: Before traveling to London, we purchased many travel books, but AAA's London guide was the only one we took with us. The book is filled with beautiful color photos, great descriptions, planned itineraries, and a fantastic detailed map. We are planning on traveling to Rome this summer and AAA's Rome guide is the only travel book we will be purchasing before we go.

Summary: Wouldn't go to london without it
Review: My wife and I took this book to London with us on our honeymoon and it was a lifesaver. Great maps, hints on food and a very useful general guide to local laws and culture. Best of all is the planned itinerary is awsome. It gives an hour to hour plan for spending a day in each major neighborhood of London. It also includes plans for transportation (walking tours or taking the underground for example). You obviously dont have to follow it but it give a great jumping off point which can be half the battle. An all around excellent accurate guide.

Summary: The best book about London I found
Review: My wife and I used this travel guide extensively while in London. It served as our bible, tour guide, and street map. It is laid out in a very clearly and the sprial binder makes it very easy to flip to any page. It is filled with clear, color pictures and maps. The guide is broken down into various regions throughout London, with each section highlighting Must See Attractions, and then At Your Leisure sites that are also in the area. It also has a very nice reference on how to see a region in one day. An Underground map is on the inside back cover, and a regional map of London on the front inside cover. Other nice features are sections called 'Finding Your Feet' - which provides great information for when you first arrive in London (either by plane, train, boat, etc..) and a 'Practicalities' seciton that talks about currency, clothes sizes,etc.

What really made this book stand out compared to other London travel guides was it included detailed street maps of these regions. Those proved invaluable for us once we started walking around the area. The book is compact, and fit inside my coat pocket comfortably.

Summary: The best book about London I found
Review: This is the best travel book about the London that I found. It has all necessary information that I was looking for without the tones of text and pictures. It gives you so good ideas about what you can or should see in one day that I decided just to follow the book. :)
