We've included suggested itineraries plus a chapter of detailed walking tours that will help you get acquainted with the most intriguing neighborhoods. We'll help you find the city's best pastries, enjoy the best after-dark diversions, and shop til you drop; then we'll take you on side trips to Versailles, Chartres, Fontainebleau, Giverny and Disneyland Paris. It's all here in one easy-to-use guide, complete with a color fold-out map and color map of the Metro.

Very pleased
The Fromers Paris travel book was a gift for my niece who has never traveled, but is going to Paris with me and my daughter so I wanted her to start planing and dreaming about what she wants to do.. I was worried it wouldn't be in good shape or not have the map attached. I was pleasantly surprised.. It was new and the map had never been opened.. She LOVED it..
