V. Helpful

I am a big fan of the rough guide series, and the Amsterdam guide was just as helpful as some of the other titles I've used. We stayed at one of the highlighted boutique hotels, and had a great vacation there. The only reason I gave it stars instead of five is that I wish there had been more restaurants included.

Used this guidebook constantly on my trip

I just got back from two weeks in the Netherlands on my own, one week of which I spent in Amsterdam. I carried this book with me as I went and consulted it a lot. It helped me decide which coffeeshops to visit, pointing me away from high-neon blaring tourist traps to fun little places like Rusland and the Grey Area. It helped me find restaurants. I liked the neighborhood-by-neighborhood maps. And I loved the glossary of Dutch food terms! The history of Amsterdam in this book felt vibrant and alive, unlike the bowdlerized version given in the Lonely Planet guide. (Compare the descriptions of the Lieverdje and the Provos to see what the LP guide leaves out.) Good guidebook. Thumbs up!

All of Amsterdam....in one book

If you are looking for a book that will tell you everything you ever needed to know about Amsterdam...look no farther. I have been to Amsterdam three times before, but I never knew there was so much to see, or the history about the places there. This book combines everything. It has great maps, good directions, and colorful historical information. No one would be lost or at a loss of things to do with this book. A must for any traveler going to Amsterdam.

Packed with essential details

Easily the best travel guide to Amsterdam and one of the best travel guides I've used. Rough Guides always pack a lot of information and this edition is no different. From how to use the trams to an informative historical backround section, this guide can not be beat.

An excellent guide

The best guide to the city I've ever used. Packed with masses of practical/cultural information and money-saving hints, this is among the best of a superb guide series, not yet well-known in the US
