Is this the right book for me?

Should I get this Berlin book in addition to Rick's complete Germany guidebook or his Best of Germany guidebook?

Probably not. If you're only spending a few days in Berlin, as part of a longer trip in Germany, the Berlin chapter of either Germany guidebook is all you're likely to need.

If, however, you're spending four days or more in Berlin, the extra information in Rick Steves Berlin can be worthwhile. It offers more in-depth sightseeing information, several additional self-guided city walks and museum/sight tours, and more specifics on shopping and entertainment. Other information is generally the same, especially compared to the complete Rick Steves Germany guidebook, which includes all the hotels, restaurants, and nitty-gritty practical advice for Berlin and its day trips that you'll find in the city guidebook. (But compared to Rick Steves Best of Germany, the Berlin guidebook does have substantially more hotel and restaurant listings, as well as coverage of three day-trip options, none of which are included in Best of Germany.)
Updates and Feedback

Latest updates: When we learn of critical changes to the information in our guidebooks on Germany, we post them (Of course, it's still smart to reconfirm critical transportation and sightseeing details locally.) Armed with a Rick Steves guidebook and these late-breaking updates, you're set for a great trip!

Submit feedback: Once you've used this book in Europe, we'd love to hear your feedback — good or bad — about our advice on sights, hotels, restaurants, and travel tips. We're also interested in any tips or discoveries you made while in Europe. Your comments help us improve our guidebooks for future travelers.
