Book Description
"Like being taken around by a savvy local."
-The New York Times
"Little fluff and lots of fun."
-Boston Globe
"Hipper and savvier than other guides."
-Diversion magazine
Are you tired of cliché-ridden guidebooks packed with promotional fluff? Then move over to the IRREVERENT GUIDES-the travel series that no tourist board would dare to recommend.
Look inside for the lowdown on:
- Hotels for the well-heeled and the sensibly-shod
- Where to see monks' bones, "talking" statues, and lesser-known Michelangelos
- Attractions to line up for-and those to skip
- Where-and when-to enjoy a proper cappuccino
- Shops to scour for the latest bags, boots, and papal vestments
- The best piazzas, outdoor cafes, and discos for people watching, wine sipping, nightclubbing, and doing as the Romans do

Looking for a travel guide that goes where other guides fear to tread? One that rides roughshod over ad-copy puffery to smartly deliver the real scoop on a destination's sites and attractions? One that dares to be honest, hip, and fun? Look no more. Frommer's Irreverent Travel Guides are wickedly irreverent, unabashedly honest, and downright hilarious, and provide an insider's perspective on which attractions are overrated tourist traps and which are the secret gems that locals love. You'll get the lowdown on restaurants, lodging, and shopping, and even find out what the locals think of you. "Like being taken around by a savvy local," said the New York Times. "Hipper and savvier than other guides," concurred Diversion magazine. Never shy about confronting the issues, the Irreverents are guides to real travel in the real world.
