Customer Reviews

An excellent portable guide

We used this excellent guide on three trips to Santa Fe in the past two years, and on side trips to Taos and Albuquerque. The information and illustrations are up to Eyewitness's usual high standards, and the small size makes for excellent portability. Maps are pretty small, but excellent maps are freely available in all three cities and in the major sites. We found an excellent guide that makes this book even more useful. Compass American Guides: Santa Fe, 5th Edition (Compass American Guides) by Lawrence W. Cheek updated by Andrew Collins "is not a conventional guidebook to Santa Fe. This is the work of a visiting journalist whose decades-long relationship with the city has flitted among love, fascination, amazement, aggravation, and exasperation. This is a guidebook in which no subject is out of bounds, one in which Santa Feans tell their amazing and preposterous stories about work and art and love and trying to build fences." The two books work very well together, the first portable and thorough, the second small enough for a suitcase, but adding great depth to knowledge and enjoyment of the area. Consider buying them both. Robert C. Ross 2008

first rate guide

This small, easy to use, guide packs easily. The index helps one find things quickly -- and the images are excellent. It was perfect for a one-week trip.

Take This Book with You When You Go!

The thing I love most about the TOP 10 books is their size. Very easy to fit into a pocket or daypack. The info is concise and accurate. The TOP 10 ratings make it easy to plan your days; you know what you really should see and do if you're new to a place. The price is reasonable, too. I've been to Albuquerque, Santa Fe and Taos before and I can confirm that this little book has hit all the right spots!

GOOD REFERENCE

A Good book that highlights most of the popular attractions/restaurants. Also has good locator maps. Its compact size is great for traveling.

A much needed addition to a great series of travel guides

If you are planning a trip to New Mexico this is an invaluable guide to have on hand. It very thoroughly covers all of the sights you would ever want to see and gives wonderful recommendations for hotels and restaurants. The one drawback is the maps are a little small so you will still want to have a bigger map of each town. Despite this the information is very well organized and easy to use. This is a much needed guide and one that I highly recommend.
