The least helpful travel guide I have ever bought1
I recently bought two Michelin green guides before a family vacation to France - one for Brittany and one for Normandy. As we traveled, I found that these were the least helpful travel guides I have ever used. Information in the books is not organized in a way that makes it easy to find. For example, there is no overview map with page references for more detailed maps. (Apparently if you want useable maps, you have to buy another of this company's products - maps are referenced in the guide but not included.) The maps that are included in the books contain little more than the suggested driving tours and some in-city street maps, so they are of little use for finding your way around the region. Also, the cities in the guides are listed alphabetically rather than by location, making the guide disjointed and hard to follow while traveling, requiring constant flipping to different places in the book. Even finding city names was not easy, since even the alphabetical part was jumbled (it is not based on the first letter of the first word in the name of the town or area.) The information within the guides was typical of any travel guide, but because these books were so difficult to use I will not be buying a Michelin guide again.
