 Neat little pocket map! Jul 31, 2008
Whew! What a lot of information in such a small package! This little foldout map can easily fit into a shirt pocket. So, portability is a great plus; one can walk around Paris with this map and guide in your pocket. Of course, this plus has its corollary minus: Goodness, the type is small! I have a somewhat hard time reading the text. Not a huge problem, but something that needs to be noted.
In this compact work is the obligatory map of the Metro, so one has a sense of where the stops are and what stops one might need to see certain sights. The map of the historic center provides a lot of information--but I need a magnifying glass (the ravages of age!).
There is a useful area by area examination of Paris (not based on the arrondissements), including sights to see, restaurants (Ah! I recall the joy of having lunch at "Les Deux Magots"), and the like. Even though this is a slim and brief guide, choices selected are reasonable.
So, here's the tradeoff. Relatively brief consideration with small print versus portability. The guide fits easily into a shirt pocket. For what it is, though, it seems a reasonable investment.
