Book Description
Whip smart, stylish and bang up-to-date, the Avant-Guide series is the vanguard of a new generation of guidebooks for travelers who have outgrown backpacks and shoestring budgets, but are too young for hermetically-sealed tour buses.
Avant-Guide books are packed with straightforward reviews from insiders who wouldn't dream of counseling readers to "pack a rain poncho" or "wear comfortable shoes." Each Avant-Guide is comprehensive in scope, detailing museums and neighborhoods as well as stylish hotels, chic shops, and the best restaurants for every budget.
In short, Avant-Guide gives you easy access to the most exciting and stylish facets of the city.

Useful and truthful,
By Mark Green (San Francisco USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Avant-Guide New York City: Insiders' Guide for Urban Adventures (Paperback)
It is a cool guide. Complete, structured and precise. I went to a different club every night and never was I dissatisfied. The rest of the guide is as informative as the Nightlife section with a wide range from exclusive places to the alternative ones.

Complex experience,
By George Holmes (Seattle,Wa USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Avant-Guide New York City: Insiders' Guide for Urban Adventures (Paperback)
This travel guide made my visit to London a complex experience. It offers all the basic sites, but it also gives you a chance to linger into the less central areas without the feelings of uncertainty.
