 Stellar effort March 24, 2006
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
As a long time resident of Amsterdam I was expecting to trash this book. I must say though, after a thorough read through, that I was pleasantly surprised. The authors' take on some of the finer points of Dutch politics, society and the environment rang true, though I do see some evidence of the new Lonely Planet that doesn't always sit with me (not always for the young, trendy and single reader, as a previous reviewer mooted, but too much hype). That said, breadth and depth is excellent in this guide and I'm prepared to put up with a bit of hype if it's reasonable insightful and takes me to the right places!
"useful" is more important than "beautiful" March 23, 2006

When going out for a visit, you don't really need the beautiful pictures in a travel book as long as carrying camera with you, but information (e.g., maps and guide). A few pictures would be good to increase the interest of going around but no more than tips. That's why this book is good and, most of all, useful.

Bought this before a family holiday to the Netherlands. Authors appear to be very young trendy and single. Sneered at anything remotely touristy or family oriented.It assumes that you are single , travel everywhere by public transport and are only interested in museums and brown cafes.
If you are taking children on a holiday this is the wrong book to buy,I got more useful information from the ferry company website.

Another important addition to the bookshelf for any person who wishes to explore a country without the charter holiday syndrome. Find all the best places to stay, eat and party listed with comprehensive reviews, maps and information. Whether it is just a weekend in Amsterdam or a month through the bulbfields, this will be required reading
