Customer Reviews

Really helpful

This book really helped us choose restaurants and activities. We got a feel for neighborhoods which I really appreciated.

Fantastic, Concise and Interesting Guide to Syndey

I've found this book to be a wealth of good ideas for activities while in Sydney. The reviews are concise and interesting and the information is timely. Great book. Mini-maps are very helpful as well. Overall I would highly recommend.

Must Have For Any Traveler

This book is absolutely perfect for traveling in or around Sydney. Its small size belies its extensive information pertaining to nine major neighborhoods in metropolitan Sydney (City Centre; the Rocks & Circular Quay; Chinatown & Darling Harbour; Inner West; Surry Hills; Kings Cross; Darlinghurst & Around; Paddington & Woollahra; Bondi Bronti & Cooge and Manly). Each of these neighborhoods comes with a readable inset map and descriptions of sights to see as well as places to shop eat and have fun around the given area. If all of this wasn't enough, the rest of the book contains a brief rundown of Sydney's history and culture as well as things to avoid while in the city. I will be spending 10 months in Sydney starting in March 2008 and I can tell you that this book will never be far from my person.
