Customer Reviews

Great tour book of San Francisco!

I really used this book to psych me up about my trip to San Francisco more than anything. Once I got there, I only had a couple days, and they were already planned for me, so I didn't get to use the book for ideas of places to go. But now I will look through it to reflect on the good memories of my trip.

A great way to see the city

This is the best possible guide you can have for walking around the city. While I would use another one for planning your vacation when you are going to be walking around the city this is one that cannot be beat. The recommendations for restaurants are very good and overall the city is well explained. If you are just going in for a day or two you could probably plan your trip with this book alone but any longer and I would use another.

handy!

I agree with previous reviewer who recommended using this as a companion to the Lonely Planet SF. Good plan! It worked for me. The maps in this book are indispensable and the information is sufficient without being overly detailed. Nice pictures, too! A good buy for all those traveling to SF =) Enjoy your trip!

Great Book for Light Traveling!

We took this book to San Francisco and found it to be an excellent reference guide. There's just enough information for each subject that it gives you a good idea of the major points without being overly detailed. While it may be true that the bigger DK guide has more information, I prefer a simpler summary and find it pretty accurate in its listings of the "Top 10" for each area (dining, outside attractions, etc.) Loaded with information without weighing down any of your luggage!

Great concise guide to SF

I've visited San Fran twice over the last three years, and must honestly say, that this is a very good book to have when visiting SF. Although not as detailed as Lonely Planet's SF city guide, which is black and white, with a few color maps, Top 10 SF, is a great companion book to LP's. Both may be used in unison, and no other guides are necessary. This by far is THE top 10 guidebook to SF!
