Final Review
You can say it the long way or the short way. We like it the way it
was done in this book.
I myself worked in Australia's beautiful city of Sydney and know how
much there is to find in and around.
Melbourne is a very different type of city. It isn't an american
style citry but loves alot of green in the innercity areas.
The tram service is as legendary as San Francisco's Trams.
Why we like the guide book very much because:
- It is comprehensive & informative
- The maps are very good
- Lovely photos
- Easy to handle
The folding map is superb. Not as big as the map I once bought
in Sydney to drive around but it would have certainly help me avoid
a few confusions at the bus stop.
Besides, the information broken down into areas of interest are well
explained and accompanied by key details not every one
might be able to tell you before you arive in the city.

One day I am sure to be returning to Australia and finding my place
to stay. Be sure, I will not forget to take this book and maps
with me.
