Rick Steves - Best of Travels in Europe (British Isles/France/Spain & Portugal/Germany, Austria & Switzerland/Italy/Greece, Turkey, Israel & Egypt)
Priced at $34.25, you can purchase this DVD on Amazon.com at: http://www.amazon.com/Rick-Steves-Best-Travels-Europe/dp/B00005Q4DD/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1214575985&sr=1-1
Rick Steves personal guide is a great way to see the European Continent. He does a great job in telling the watcher not only about places to see, but how to travel when you're a guest in a foreign country; how to change money; how to find the off-the-beaten path places away from the tourist crowd; and features nice family type restaurants. He provides a perfect balance unlike other videos in this genre.
His personal touch is engaging and this travelogue is narrated from his perspective. On one DVD, he sits down and explains how he packs and shows what he puts in his money belt that he wears.
He does a lot of walking/hiking during his trips and explains about packing lightly and being able to carry everything in a backpack of sorts. He takes the time to explain things, offers a bit of history, talks to the locals, and is just a normal kind of guy.
The DVD is well done and you will want to watch it again and again just for fun. A trip anywhere should be intellectually stimulating and interesting as well as filled with beautiful people and sights--Rick Steve's makes sure it is.
Again, this is another sensational Rick Steves combo, putting episodes about all the German-speaking countries into one package.
Whether you are planning a Sound of Music tour in Salzberg or a trip to Munich for Oktoberfest, this is one DVD that you will utilize over and over again as you plan your vacations to Europe.
