Customer Reviews

Good one!

I'm living in Amsterdam and if you don't have the Amsterdam Guide, you can easily buy this one that has all you need to know about the city plus the informations about the rest of the country.

DK The Netherlands

I like the DK publications. This gives me great information and visuals to go with them.

TO be used for background info....

Eyewitness Guides are a fabulous introduction to the country you are visiting...history, art, culture, food, shopping, architecture, natural wonders, crafts etc - they are BEAUTIFULLY and COPIOUSLY illustrated BUT they should not be used as a guide for recommendations on hotels, restuarants & sites to see. They do contain this information, but the main utility in these great books is for you to get the flavor of the country, and they do a great job. I highly recommend the entire series and a starting point for every journey.

Great resource for travelers

We used an Eyewitness guide for our trip to London years ago and found it the most helpful of all the guidebooks we had purchsed. The real photos and accurate information made our first trip to Europe go very smoothly. As we plan our second trip, we have not been disappointed by the Amsterdam Eyewitness guide. Again, the striking photographs, maps, and well-organized information makes planning a trip a breeze. Our kids enjoy seeing the places we will visit.

Best travel guide around

I've used some of the Eyewitness Travel Guides on a trip around Europe, they were so useful that when I came home I've bought some more. They are more than travel guides, they are also a souvenir. I totally recommend them. Great pictures, great 3D street maps with suggested routes, great explanations.
