Favorite Three Things to Do in Paris!

#1 Relax at a cafe: Relaxing at a café is one of the greatest pleasures of a trip to Paris. You can learn more sitting in a café for an hour than spending the day in a museum. In Paris, people-watching is like no other place in the world. Eating & Drinking in Paris will help you navigate the cafes, wine bars, and restaurants of Paris.

#2 Visit one of the lesser-known museums: Musée Marmottan-Claude Monet is named after Paul Marmottan, who donated his beautiful home to house his collection of historic furnishings. In 1966, when Monet’s son died in an automobile accident, the museum received over 130 works by the artist, including Impression-Sunrise, from which the Impressionist movement is said to have gotten its name. In addition to the well-known water lilies and paintings of his house in Giverny, you’ll also see Renoir’s portrait of Monet. Paris Made Easy will help you discover some of the lesser-know museums of Paris.

#3 Get your walk on: 
The real reason the French are thin ...
The French have two-hour lunches with lots of wine and dinners that include dishes smothered with delicious cream sauces, even more wine and sinful desserts. So why are they so thin? It’s simple: They walk everywhere. To the market, to the cinema and yes, to the bistro. Now, you too can travel to Paris, eat and drink all you want and (hopefully!) not gain a pound. All you have to do is venture out on the walks in our Paris Walks book.

Our 2019 editions of Amsterdam Made Easy and Berlin Made Easy are now available on amazon.com in both paperback and ebook editions.

Berlin Made Easy: Berlin is like no other city in the world. Despite the ravages of war, the brutal division of the wall, and the struggles of reunification, Berlin continues to look forward. You can marvel at historic buildings painstakingly renovated (such as the impressive Reichstag), or experience some of the most innovative modern architecture anywhere. But Berlin isn't about buildings. It's about feeling alive and vibrant. There's something for everyone. From museums like the Pergamonmuseum, with some of the world's greatest masterpieces, to poignant memorials like the Memorial to the Murdered Jews, to an exciting nightlife unlike any other city in Europe, Berlin will not disappoint. 

Amsterdam Made Easy: Amsterdam has more canals than Venice, more bridges than Paris, more bicycles than cars, and perhaps more tolerance than any other city in the world. It's what makes Amsterdam truly unique and such a wonderful place to visit. Because the city is so compact, you can see a lot even if your stay is short. Its sights are as diverse as its residents, including beautiful churches, lovely gardens, world-class museums and, of course, the infamous Red Light District. Cultured, vibrant, fun-and easy to get around-Amsterdam is the perfect European city to explore.

Cosmopolitan Barcelona is the gateway to Spain’s Mediterranean coast, and has so much to offer, whether you have a day or a week in this fabulous city. You’ll find world-class museums, including the Museu Picasso, with some of this artist’s most interesting works. Or perhaps you’d prefer to wander the narrow streets of the Barri Gòtic (Gothic Quarter) filled with medieval buildings. Barcelona also has some of the most interesting architecture in Europe, especially the structures designed by Antoni Gaudí. Don’t miss the indescribable and uncompleted La Sagrada Família (Church of the Holy Family), Barcelona’s most recognizable landmark. Barcelona is an easy city to get around on foot. So, we've included walking tours of the interesting neighborhoods of this fantastic destination. And get ready to stay up late in Spain’s second-largest city, because Barcelona is known for its vibrant nightlife. ​If you have only a few days, we’ll make it easy for you to truly experience Barcelona. Our walks are designed for you to see the most sights in the shortest time. So forget those large, bulky travel books. This handy little guide to Barcelona is all you need to make your visit enjoyable, memorable—and easy. Barcelona Made Easy is now available on amazon.com in paperback and ebook.
