 Indulge in a Paris Walk Jul 06, 2008
By Kandy Bartlett
I just returned from a trip to Paris with my daughter. This book was easy to follow and easy to pack! The best way to explore a neighborhood in Paris is by walking, and learning some of the history, yet stopping to enjoy the cafes and restaurants. The walks are well thought out, including a map to show you all the stops you can make, an agenda to plan out your day, with all the information for getting there, metro and bus stops, hours and costs. As you follow the walk, you are told exactly which way to turn when you exit a building or what landmark to look for. It's hard to get lost following these directions! As you follow a walk, the history and little known facts help make the area come alive, without overwhelming you! Also included are little stops to eat, drink and rest to make it all the more enjoyable. We especially loved the walk in our own neighborhood, rue Montorgueil. Monsieur Pineau at Foody's made us feel welcome, and provided some of the best soups and gorgeous salad bar we saw on the trip. The book also included tips to plan and pack for the trip, and all the necessary details about atms, post office, phone cards, metro passes, and much more to make our trip go smoothly. An area for phone numbers, addresses of friends and family, plus an area to write in the diary, made this book "all inclusive", useful & delightful.

 It's a good book if you want just the basics Aug 21, 2008

Suzy's Walk Paris is a short introduction to places in Paris that are not mentioned in most popular travel guide books such as Fodor's or Frommor's, etc. I have to say that the directions are very simple and easy to understand but if you want something more compact and wider variety of information, this is not for you. I've bought Fodor's Paris 2008 and to compliment that I purchased Suzy's and it worked out perfect.
Personally, it was too "baby-ish" for my taste. But, if you do not like reading too much, get Suzy's Walk Paris. Also, Suzy's cost way too much for the information given in the book. For that amount, I wished I had purchased Rick Steves' Paris...
I just love this book! Sep 06, 2009

My Wife and I have a dream of visiting many countries within the next few years and we have been doing a lot of reading and searching for info as to how to enjoy our trip to the maximum with our rather small budget.
Paris is a must visit place at least once in your life and my wife and I read this book and it is very detailed and interesting, I think by the time we go it will feel like we have been there before. Congratulations Annie, it is an excellent guide.

Walk Paris is a wonderful companion if you are exploring Paris and would like to leave with your own discoveries. Each of the "walks" are enjoyable, unique, and provide an experience which touches on fascinating locations, without sending you only where a tourist would go. The Tips and suggestions are simple and practical, the ambience of the book is welcoming and warm. Whether you explore with your feet, your eyes, or your mind from an armchair, Walk Paris is like seeing this wonderful city with your best friend.
