[Tri Le · Rating 4 out of 5]

Compact and useful Rome (and Vatican City) guide with plenty of reviews and advice. The book offers some suggestions on itineraries, information by area, “Don’t Miss” options along with essentials on where to stay, some vocabulary, and getting around. It’s colorful and easy to read. I liked the menu glossary at the end. Nice supplement to travel research on Rome though some things may be dated as it was written for 2012.
