Excellent!
This series of DVDs is the best series of travelogues I have seen and I've seen many of them. It is very comprehensive and well done. They give you just enough historical background of each city then show you both the outside and inside of about 20 of the top attractions, such as cathedrals, museums, parks and palaces. They don't waste time showing you things that you can see anywhere as some travelogues do-- you see what is unique to the city being discussed. They concentrate on the core of the city. You will feel like you really know the city when the DVD is done. This DVD was produced in the 21st century so it is a generation more up-to-date than most travelogues you see. Both the photography and the narration are excellent. Highly recommended.

DEADLY BORING
This is the WORST travel video i have ever seen. I warn you, do NOT buy any of these.
Like a fool, I bought four of the series for my parents for a gift, but when i screened them, i was hugely embarrassed, and my parents said the shows were too boring to keep watching. The writer/director/narrator drove through the heart of each town once and shoot footage of one museum and one church. The rest is filler. Hardly any interiors. The guys is a genius -- after all there aren't many people who could make Rome and Paris and Amsterdam and Tokyo so utterly boring!!!
