Wish I had this on our last trip to Paris....
Excellent book. Descriptions, directions, photos...just lovely. Although we did not have it on our last month long trip to France where our base was Paris, they did mention some places we found ourselves & they were right on the money. We have found that asking the locals (who are so very charming & nice) where they would go for various things, introduces you to the real Paris. Great little book.

Take this book to Paris!
I'm in Paris as I write this and I'm so happy to have this little guide book along. A couple of the "secrets" have either closed or are under renovation, but the book has introduced me to lots of gems. Who knew about the little street "Rue du Chat qui Peche,: let alone the fact that it was built in 1540 to give people access to the Seine? I highly recommend this book to anyone who is planning a trip to Paris. Of 500 secrets, some are sure to be of interest to everyone.

... of the places in this book and were not disappointed. Very good recommendations of places to go that ...
We visited so many of the places in this book and were not disappointed. Very good recommendations of places to go that are not necessarily touristy. If you are into doing things in Paris that are more in line with where the Parisians go, this is the book for you.

Great reading
We visited Paris a few years ago, and it would have been even better with this book. If there is another visit in our future, this book will definitely go along with us.

Non la solita guida
La serie "The 500 Hidden Secrets" è scritta da autori diversi residenti nei luoghi oggetto. Gli spunti sono poco turistici ma ancor più utili perchè pieni di gioielli noti solo ai locali. Può costituire un ottimo regalo per altri o per sé. Io non viaggio più senza.

Interesting
I wasn't sure how good this would be, but we used it a lot on a recent short break to Paris. Some good ideas for places to eat and more unusual things to see.
