Italy - recommended guide books

Lonely Planet Italy guide has helped us out on several trips to Italy. One of the best guides to Italy available. Thinner on the history than the The Rough Guide to Italy but still an immensly practical book.

The Rough Guide to Italy is the usual high standard you can expect from the Rough Guide series. Excellent practical information on all the major attractions sits well alongside good quality historical information. Accomodation and dining recommendations are consistently good quality - although not always budget they usually offer good value at price.

The Eyewitness Guide to Italy is a typically well illustrated guide we've come to expect from the Eyewitness range. It's thin on history and practical information such as accomodation and dining. None the less, it's an excellent introduction to Italy and will be very useful to the first time visitor to Italy deciding what to see and do.
