Prague Encounter...Invaluable! October 27, 2008
Alicia A. Rotman (Boca Raton, FL USA)
My husband and I recently visited Prague. As I had gotten Lonely Planet's travel guide on Greece a year before and found it absolutely helpful, this time I got their Prague Encounter. It did not dissapoint us. On the contrary; it is the best little travel guide you can find! We followed its suggestions like a bible which made our short visit (3 days) thoroughly enjoyable! I recommended it HIGHLY!
Great guide for a short trip to Prague October 22, 2007

I recently spent 4 days in Prague visitng a friend and decided to pick up this book right before I left. I am so glad I did! While I did have my friend with me to help me navigate the sights, I definitely could have done it all easily with this book. It is small and compact so it is easy to carry in a purse or pocket, and it is full of information and color photos, which I think help you understand and get your bearings when looking for something. It also includes a tear out map in the back of the book that has the metro lines on it, which are very useful and my recommendation for getting around the city. In addition to all of the information including the sights, places to eat, and where to go, it still gives you a bit of historical and cultural information about the city as well.
All of the places my friend took me where in this book, including some of the best clubs to go to and the reviews were spot on. This is the book to get if you plan on spending a few days in Prague, as it gives you all the best information in one small package! A must have for anyone going to the city.
