## Description

You can count on Rick Steves to tell you what you really need to know when traveling through Europe. With Rick Steves Europe Through the Back Door , you'll learn how to: Plan your itinerary and maximize your time Pack light and right Find good-value hotels and restaurants Travel smoothly by train, bus, car, and plane Avoid crowds and tourist scams Hurdle the language barrier Understand cultural differences and connect with locals Save money while enjoying the trip of a lifetime After 30+ years of exploring Europe, Rick considers this travel skills handbook his life's work, and with his expert introductions to the top destinations in Europe, choosing your next trip will be easy and stress-free. Using the travel skills in this book, you'll experience the culture like a local, spend less money, and have more fun.

Review: Best travel book - I highly recommend this book. I purchased one for myself and after seeing how much it enhanced my experience on a European trip I am purchasing one as a gift. This book is packed full of valuable information. As a Houstonian public transportation is basically non-existent. I learned all about train travel - the most useful part was how to read the train departure board and how to determine where to stand on the platform. It also has great advice on locating the train schedules and booking train travel while still in the U.S. The book also contains useful information on packing light which is so important. Another really important topic covered is money strategies and keeping your finances and documents secure.
Review: A MUST have. - Bright, clear, and easy to quickly reference....another win for Rick and his outstanding team! We lived in and toured Europe relying heavily on the 2005(ish) version of this book and loved the knowledge, advice, and background we gleaned from the book. We were able to get off the beaten path and find the hidden gems (ie. Salema, Lucca, and Dubrovnik) while also knowing exactly how and when to visit all the mainstream spots in cities like Rome and Paris. Headed back to Europe in 2017, I wanted to know the recommendations, safety, and accommodations were up-to-date when we, once again, sneak around Europe through the back door. This is a must if you want to avoid tourist traps and rookie mistakes while maximizing your time and experience. Tip: Watch Rick's YouTube videos for your destinations to get an even better knowledge before you travel.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must for even experienced travelers, covers important topics that effect your travels now.
*by E***N on June 3, 2019*

This is a must read for anyone traveling to Europe. Even if you have been there before so much has changed. How you get money, what to bring, and more have all changed greatly in the past 5 years. Steve does a great job in describing all the differences that could effect your travel. Even using your cell phone is not simple unless you don’t care how much you spend. I’ve been overseas many many times and was fascinated by all the new ways of life and how they effect you in these foreign countries. So, get this book even if you’re an experienced traveler.
