How about you?
The first Rick Steves book I bought was for a trip to Portugal in 2005. Have bought many since for various trips. We used to exclusively book Rick recommended lodging, and only once were disappointed.
Really appreciate the logistics information. No other guidebook tells it like it us and gives you the right links to websites.
While I’d always noticed the “what if you need a doctor”, I never had to use until our trip to Austria and Budapest last month. 5 nights into the trip I was coughing and wheezing so bad I coukdnt sleep. So first thing in the morning, I pull out the Kindle, and yeahhhh, a clinic where English is spoken. Called for appointment, was told it would cost 44,000 fonts about $150. So google maps helped me catch the bus near the doctor. After being diagnosed with bronchitis was given three prescriptions. I texted the person that met us at the apartment and he found a pharmacy that was open on a Sunday.
Thank you arick Steves for including things most people never need in your guide books!
