 Needs updating, but good overall August 24, 2007

A good overall explanation of what to expect, and clearly the main attractions are all included. However, beware, as the bars and restaurants listed do not all exist any more (this edition is from 2004). Given that navigating is difficult enough with street names in cyrillic, beware and phone before you leave your hotel!
Additionally, the visa requirements have changed, so you will save yourself a lot of worry if you check them out first.
Great city though, highly recommended
 You cannot travel without it... August 26, 2002

I discovered this guide in the pubblic library when I was getting organized to travel to Skt. Petersburg. From the first minute it looked well made: detailed and clear at the same time. But it is when I was there that I discovered how great it was. All the classical description of the city and of the monuments is very well organized and easy to consult. The map of the underground presented also with the cirillic alphabet has been very useful. And not to mention how interesting can be for a traveller to be presented with a list of the different restaurants along with a brief desciption of every single one and a price range... we loved it so much we are going to buy it now that we came back, just to have it home!
The most comprehensive guide. December 7, 2001

In typical Rough-guide style, this book is very comprehensive and generally very good and truthful about one of the visually and culturally finest big-cities in Europe. Read it before you go, as the load of information might be just a little too much to cope with for those who are unprepared...(Lonely Planet-guides are easier to use on-the-spot, but in my opinion less interesting). And don't forget to bring a good map as supplement!
