Ook dit dikke exemplaar voldoet aan het Capitool-concept: een luxe gids met enorm veel kleurenfoto's in alle formaten, driedimensionale overzichtstekeningen, opengewerkte tekeningen van musea en paleizen, plattegronden van steden etc. De informatie, in klein lettertype, is compact en niet al te diepgravend. Per regio worden de hoogtepunten goed aangegeven door 'bezienswaardigheden in het kort' met kaartje en 'sterattracties'. Na een inleiding van 73 pagina's volgt een bespreking per regio in 33 hoofdstukken. Vanaf pagina 554 is praktische informatie opgenomen: accommodatie, restaurants, winkelen, amusement, reisinformatie etc. De toon van de praktische informatie is soms wat betuttelend. Voor de toerist die nog geen keuze heeft gemaakt welk gedeelte van Italië te bezoeken, is het een handige bron om thuis eens in te bladeren. Is er eenmaal een keuze gemaakt voor een regio, dan is een uitgebreide regio-gids beter om mee te nemen.

Italy has a wealth on offer, from artistic masterpieces to amazing hill towns to some of Europe's best beaches. From far northern reaches in the Alps to the sun-soaked Mediterranean shores and islands of the south, this guide explores this charming country from tip to toe, highlighting the best about every province and city. Whether you wish to explore renaissance art in Florence, Monumental Greek ruins in Sicily, or Romeo and Juliet's Verona, you'll find cutaways and floor-plans of all of Italy's magical major sights. This new expanded edition includes top attractions, beaches, markets and festivals listed town by town, whilst walks, scenic routes, and thematic tours will ensure you wont miss a miss a thing. All along the way, the guide summarises all you'll need to know about the history, the architecture, and the art - and still manages to recommend which wine goes best with the risi e bisi or the maccheroni con le sarde. -- Publisher details
