Bought these to walk around London. They worked much better than expected. Two weeks non-stop walking and they were wonderful.

I like these hiking boots.  They are being used to try and prepare for a pilgrimage and they fit well!

As noted in another review, this is not the most comprehensive of guidebooks, but that can be an advantage when carrying it in your backpack while touring the city!  It has very good maps of Manhattan and pretty much just covers what most tourists will want to see.  I found it to be very useful.

I love this set of mini walking tours.

We found that the recommendations in the guides about interesting places/shops/restaurants/bars was fantastic and spot on, and in our conversations with locals, they too would have recommended the same places to eat/visit. While some of the restaurant/shop information is outdated, this is impossible to avoid in a city like NYC where there is constant turnover.

I have used this guide now for London and NYC and will definitely take them with me on many many future trips to both these cities. I would not hesitate to buy these cards for any other city that I plan to visit.

I would not however, recommend these cards as your ONLY source of information, it would be great along with a Fodors or a Lonely Planet guide which gives you more of an overview of different areas of a city. After narrowing down areas of interest from those guides, then drill down to the City Walks guide and pick out walks in the selected areas.

Happy travels!

This backpack is perfect for me to use when travelling and need a backpack for walking about town and day hikes. It is lightweight and folds up nicely to store in my suitcase.

We have enjoyed two of these walks so far. Directions are wonderfully good, and we are enjoying seeing Portland on foot.

I like this walking stick. I bought it planning on my trip to the Grand Canyon and needing something that will collapse and fit into my luggage for the plan. It tends to stick while locking and unlocking and would think this would be difficult for some people and a bit frustrating for myself but overall, I really like it.

Since I wrote this review I have used this for several hikes including the Grand Canyon and have enjoyed it very much. The sticking while unlocking it to expand it has gone away, probably the newness had it sticking. My only problem so far has been at the airport, I almost had it taken from me because of the metal tip setting off the detectors. It would be a great improvement to the design to make the metal portion able to unscrew for such cases as well as if you hike in rocky locations it would enable the eventual replacement of the tip when it wears down.

Good quality maps with attractions. I use my GPS but I write a lot of notes about mu photography and these maps come in hand.

I used these cards on a visit to Paris a few weeks ago, and I have to say that I found them much more beneficial than the several guide books that I also had. Each day I would just pick the area I wanted to explore, take out the cards from this pack from that area, and use them as a general starting point to explore the area.

There is a really interesting selection. All of the main "touristy" areas are covered, but what I found much more interesting were the slighlty more off the beaten track walks. They help you discover some of the "other" sides to Paris.

Each card has a map on one side, and a written guide on the other which includes notable sights, shops, cafes etc as well as the suggested start point Metro station.

The only thing that might have been added was a Metro map.

I was very pleased with this product and I will use the City Walks for other cities that plan to visit in the future.

We did some of the walking tours and used the metro map a lot.
My husband and I always get a Lonely Planet book every time we visit a new city and this one did not disappoint during our trip to Paris.

I love it. The pack is just right for a walking trip. It will fit in a pocket and then unfold when you buy something or want to carry something. The waterbottle pockets could be a little larger as my waterbottle has a  cover . Also it would be nice if there was a fastener on the ends of the straps that could be secured in front to be more secure. I love it and it will be perfect for my trip to Washington DC.

I love these guides.  They are for those who want to know about the areas they are visiting in some depth.  Readable and worth the time for the traveller rather than the tourist.

I only had three days in Lima and this helped me make the best of it. The links to the walking tour sites were great. Especially the one for the Barranco neighborhood. This is a must buy.

Excellent small version of the larger DK book. Great for a tour since one can easily carry it.
