Editorial Review: Product Description: From the Top 10 ancient sites and statues to the Top 10 restaurants, festivals and seaside excursions - this book provides the insider knowledge every visitor needs, including information for the 2004 Athens Olympics. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Much more than a gimmick(I wanted to make it 4 stars, but goofed and now can't seem to change it.) This sounds like a gimmick, but is a surprisingly useful guide, especially given its compact size and low price. The concept of the top 10 list is used to organize information on the most important or interesting things to see. For each item on the top 10 there is a brief paragraph and a marker on a tiny map.

One problem was that the opening hours for the musea were incorrect. Archaelogical museum was listed as being open in May till 7:00pm. When we arrived at about 1:30pm we found out that they closed at 3:00pm. They still had 'winter' hours. Opening hours for musea in Athens are kind of random anyway, check before you go. Rating:  - Awesome!! Worth every penny.I am going to Greece later this year, and I bought this to start getting an idea of what to go see and what to expect. This book is great!! It is a great place to start, especially if you don't have alot of time on the trip and want to hit the "big stuff." I thoroughly enjoyed the overviews on all the different places. It gives you the hours, the prices, best times of day to go to places, best restaurants, etc. It even tells you what to avoid. I bought it with a few other books, which go into ... Read More Rating: - Very thorough guideThis is a very thorough guide for when you have only a day or two to visit. It actually has way more in it than we could possibly see or do. Giving the top ten things to see is great for your first visit. It is also great for probably your second or third. Very helpful, lots of pictures and maps. Rating: - Traveling BookThis book was very helpful. The compactness of the book was great, it was easy to carry and stow in the back pack. The information was very acurate. It was a great benefit to have. Browse for similar items by category:
