Pocket Map and Guide Vienna (Eyewitness Pocket Map & Guide) Paperback – March 19, 2007

In hind sight, which I gotten a full size book. Even for a short trip, the savings in size in terms of lugging it around didn't make up for the hassle trying to read it.

Very compact, informative little book. Handy to take on your trip. You have everything there. The street map was detailed enough with metro stops on it. Metro map folded out in the back. I read the big DK book for supplements but I only packed the pocket guide. I love it! Also saw another person on a walking tour carrying the same. I wish it had more info and a better map on the out of town trips but I guess that would negate the pocket size purpose, which it promised and delivered totally.

I carried this guide everywhere with me in Vienna. It has mostly everything you need: a map, short history excerpts, pictures and would fit in any purse.

I used this guide and map on a recent trip to Vienna. It was a lifesaver for getting around the Inner Stadt but not as useful outside of the central part of the city. The subway/bus/tram information was useful when I needed to get somewhere fast! It is particularly useful because it is easy to hold in your hand while walking and looking for street names. Overall I would not leave home without it.

The guide is perfect. Very small, easy to carry along the city. I know Vienna well, I've been there several times and the guide was all I needed to find the important spots and not only. I recommend it.
