Fodor Chicago 2011 Fullcolor Travel Guide Fodor 9781400004492 Books Reviews
- As usual, Fodor's comes through. Their books are well written, informative and since this is a 2011 edition, probably as accurate as any current guide book.
I do a lot of research and I mean A LOT, so I love looking reading guide books. You get ideas that you can either follow through online or use as is. This book covers the usual - hotels, restaurants, sights, transportation etc.., but covers them thoroughly, along with other invaluable information. I guess I enjoy reading a good guide book, as much as I enjoy a good novel and I read them cover to cover if they fit my needs and criteria.
I used to think that Fodors books were written only for affluent travelers - WRONG... there is so much that appeals to travelers on all budgets. Of course hotels and restaurants are usually high end, but there are so many other entries and things to do, and pertinent information on your destination that make Fodors worthwhile for all budgets - and of course if you want to splurge or eat and stay in a higher range, you have those options.
I use guide books mainly for things to see and do and for restaurants and out of town trips etc... - My grandson is moving to Cicago in the fall. He has grown up in Phoenix and went to College in Evansville IN. Chicago outstrips these stops in size, opportunity and complexity. Fodor Chicago lives u p to the reputation of Fodor. I covers the various scenes from art, education, architecture, culture to sports, night life and local color. Clear, and complete, it is a perfect book to learn Chicago.
- Got for a recent trip. Could just read the 7 day example artineray to plan your excursion.
- This is the third version of Fodor's travel guides I have purchased, I love them. Informative, well laid out, easy to read and full of very helpful insights. A must before you travel to your destination, but good just to research other countries and cultures, based on actual travel experience. I will be purchasing other destinations.
- Best travel book series on the planet.
- Easy to read and use. I look forward to traveling to Chicago. I have always used Fodor guides but using the kindle version means all the links are live. Instant access makes this great guide even better.
- Great book!
- This Fodor's Travel Guide is just what I was looking for. Very good description of the different neighborhoods of Chicago. Very practical concerning walking itineraries, public transportation,taxis,car and parking info, hotel and restaurant information including the rates. Good information about free concerts, jazz clubs, classic concerts, shopping in the different neighborhoods.
The info I found at was OK and I knew Fodor's are good. Good map of Chicago included, easy to handle, good quality, it's not going to tear apart after a few days.
