Travel

Ideal for business and leisure, "CityPack Paris" is succinct with all the practical information you need for a perfect trip. Presented in a handy compact format, the guide also contains a separate fold-out map, within a concealed poppered pocket to help you navigate the city. Fully updated for 2006, Paris has been broken up into colour-coded districts, with the colour-coding cross-referenced throughout each section. There are four main sections within the guide: Essential Paris, Paris by Area, Where to Stay and Need to Know. Essential Paris starts with the Top 25 sights plus a locator map, then essential information to get the most of a short break in the city. Paris by Area takes you through the city, district by district, with localised shopping and entertainment listings. Where to Stay picks the best hotels to suit your budget, with web addresses listed where available. Need to Know contains all the basics for a smooth-running trip. Each district within the city has a two-page, colour-coded locator map with key sights listed.
