Finally - Europe's best three weeks - in recipe form. Rick Steves has done this tour twelve times with small groups and refined it into the most deficient mix of famous "must see" sights, intimate "back door" nooks, and off-beat crannies.. This book gives you just the essential information - city maps, most efficient day-plans, train schedules, and tips on cultural immersion for do-it-yourselfers as well as "big bus tourists" who want to think for themselves. . And, if you have less than three weeks, the tour is designed so you can jump into it and out of it at any point along the way.
