About

Written by local experts in food, fashion and entertainment, Thumbnail Guides take you to the very essence of the world's leading cities in a brilliantly designed, easy to carry and stylish travel guide.

• SELECTIVE: carefully chosen places to eat, shop, party and explore, to help you make the very most of your time in a city and discover the best of what it offers


• INDEPENDENT: written by experts in each city - resident food writers, fashion journalists, personal shoppers and travel authors - every entry has been independently reviewed and hand picked for inclusion


• COMPACT: the guides' intuitive, concertina format lets you navigate quickly betweens sections and instantly flip between map and text, whilst folding away into a slim and elegant, feather-light design that slips into your pocket or bag


• INFORMATIVE: updated twice a year, the concise and pithy reviews of restaurants, cafes, bars, shops, spas, galleries and entertainment give you just the right amount of information to help you choose what to do, with every entry clearly marked on a full colour city centre map to help you find it
