Back Roads Northern & Central Italy |

"DK Eyewitness Back Roads Italy" takes you away from the main roads to beautiful villages and picturesque landscapes. It uses in-depth local knowledge to create driving tours full of original ideas for activities, off-the-beaten-track stops, and authentic places to eat and to stay. The itineraries include guided walks through historic towns or unspoiled countryside, the rules of the road, detailed maps, clear driving instructions, road conditions and the length of the drive to parking information and opening hours of restaurants and attractions plus a range of activities and tips on buying local crafts and produce. A companion series to the "Eyewitness Travel Guides", the books can be used in conjunction with existing guides or on their own. Each guide has a pull-out road map for easy navigation between drives and all the practical information you need on your way to experiencing the charm of Italy.
