Excellent, targeted guidebook--electronic version!

I had checked this book out of the library, then decided it would be much easier to purchase the electronic version for reference on the trip. While a book is much easier to flip through and bookmark, this was easier to carry on both an Android phone and Samsung notebook.I always appreciate a Rick Steves walking tour. The tour for the Alhambra in Granada, the Alcazar and cathedral in Seville, and the information on Tangier, Morocco, were especially helpful. Since we were traveling with 6 of us and trying to move pretty quickly, we didn't purchase the audio tours in English for many of these sites. We were able to maintain the pace we wanted by guiding ourselves.There is a lot of information in the guide for people who know nothing about the region they are visiting, and don't speak the language there. The background information is very helpful, and the detailed information is too. The balance between the two is excellent. I even used the hand-drawn map in Ronda, along with a terrific restaurant recommendation for tapas. We did not use any of the hotel recommendations as I work for a major hotel chain and am brand-loyal. Even the notes about the orange trees growing in Seville were accurate--the fruit is everywhere, but tastes terrible! It got to be a bit of a joke with the family--when I quoted Rick's guide, my kids would throw up both hands in the air in an "all-hail" sort of gesture and intone "Rick Steves has spoken!"I find that Rick's intentions and sensibilities for travel match ours well. He led us away from over-done, touristy areas and toward more authentic places and activities. It doesn't cost much to bring Rick Steves on vacation with you, and may be the best money you spend!

Excellent guide!

This is an excellent guide for your travels in southern Spain. It works logically in terms of schedule, giving superb advice and useful insider tips every step of the way. I recommend buying it well beforehand and highlighting what you like. The only negative I found was that it left out a few interesting southern towns (for instance, Cádiz). In any case, highly recommended!

I bought this in conjunction with the DK Eyewitness Travel Guide: Seville & Andalusia. They both work together beautifully. The DK book gives wonderful depth to the area and Steves' book gives a quick and lively look and great tips to specific areas and parts of Seville, Granada and Cordoba. And, he gives great tips to visiting surrounding areas. Both of these will be a great help to me as I have been in the northern part of Spain but not the South.

The best and maybe only book you'll need

We just returned from a trip to Sevilla and Rick's book was the best, most reliable and most comprehensive guide we had. His advice and recommendations were spot on nearly always, his guide suggestions were excellent, his map was even better than the larger foldout we purchased. Top notch.

Great book! Up-to-date information and great tips!

Used it everyday during our trip. By the time I purchased, we had already booked lodging so I cannot comment on those suggestions, but Rick definitely steered us to the right neighborhoods, sites and restaurants during our stay - Cordoba, Sevilla, Ronda and Granada.

great guide

We went to Southern Spain and this book was invaluable. We were able to hire a guide suggested by RickSteves who was marvelous. I recommend this book if you are going to Southern spain

Great book for travelers…great size, weight, and historical content

This used book had too many highlighted marks and bent pages. Information in the book is still relevant….however I wish the seller had described The condition of the book more clearly.

KINDLE VERSION DOESN'T WORK!

I have loaded and reloaded this kindle version and each time it does load up I can only read a few pages then it says that it could not be opened and to go to amazon website to load it directly from the website.From what I could read the book itself would have been helpful but without being able to actually read the whole book it was totally useless.WASTE OF MONEY ............I'd really like my money back.
