Customer Reviews

FROMMER AS USUAL
TYPICAL FROMMER GUIDEBOOK-EASY TO READ...RECOMMENDS RESTAURANTS AND HOTELS, THEREFORE LISTS ARE INCOMPLETE AS THEY DO NOT REVIEW IN A NEGATIVE MANNER. MAPS ARE VERY CLEAR, AND ATTRACTIONS ARE WELL DESCRIBED. ]

Can't wait to see Provence
I have always loved the Frommer's Guides and this one is no disappointment. Very useful information, with plenty of listings of restaurants, hotels, and attractions which coem in handy in a guide book. Other guide books do not have nearly as much information. So I highly recommend this one - short & sweet!
