Popular travel expert Rick Steves—acclaimed for his bestselling guidebooks and public television series—shares strategies on how to make the most of every mile, minute, and euro on your next European adventure.
Steves passes along tips for planning a smart itinerary, getting off the usual tourist path, overcoming the language barrier, becoming a "temporary local," and eating and sleeping smartly. He also gives practical suggestions on using credit cards, cash, and ATMs, as well as outsmarting the crowds and avoiding the lines at popular attractions.
Beyond putting together a dream itinerary for less, Steves is ready to equip and inspire you to travel with openness, curiosity, and willingness to immerse yourself in local cultures and customs—all of which, according to him, are the mark of a great traveler. Packing light is essential for happy, hassle-free travel.
