Paris Travel Books

There are some exceptional books about Paris available, however there is not one alone that's perfect for all things regarding the City of Lights! Therefore one has to carefully select the topic one would like to research/read about this beautiful mega city. There are excellent books about the history of Paris like A Traveller's History of Paris by Robert Cole, fantastic guides of all the markets in the city like Markets of Paris by Dixon Long and of course plenty books about food like The Food Lover's Guide by Kate Whiteman

When you buy books about Paris

Make sure the travel guide is specifically about the city of Paris or at least it is the main topic of a broader theme (ie included in a book about France). There is really nothing more annoying than to buy a book about a specific region but you just get an overview instead of indepth information of Paris. Always make sure that you buy a travel book that's not too old (published date) because the travel information could be outdated.

If possible buy a book that has many of pictures of the city. After all you would like to see as much of the place you are going before you arrive to help plan your trip. We collected the (in our opinion) best travel books about Paris available. I hope you find the selection useful. Happy reading!

Very good travel books about Paris
