Fodor's Essential Italy, 2nd Edition: Rome, Florence, Venice & the Top Spots In Between (Full-Color Gold Guides)


by: Fodor's
I bought this book while preparing for a trip to Rome, Florence and Venice. Some helpful things included:

- Maps
- Traveling tips (currency, cultural customs, etc...)
- Museum and attraction information
- Hotels
- Restaurants
- Contact information for all places mentioned

The only criticism I had of it was on it's section regarding getting to and from Venice. The only options it gives is water taxi! Look into the regular bus line that leaves from the plaza west of the train station.
