Customer Reviews

Really made our vacation

We just got back from a trip to Lucca, Pisa, Florence, and Siena and we used this book to plan most of the trip. Wow, Rick was almost invariably smack-on on everything. Of the hotels we stayed in, all were from his recommendations and only one of them was unsatisfactory. (Two of the others were terrific.) The restaurants he suggested were all great and his guide to the sights helped us enormously. If you're going to Tuscany, you should really invest in this book. You'll be glad that you did.

The only guide we took!

We just got back from a week in Tuscany. We used several restaurant reviews, two lodging reviews and several museum tours. In our experience the information and maps were very accurate and concise.
