Product Description #Michael Brein's Guide to Chicago by the L shows travelers how to go to Chicago s top 50 visitor attractions by the L (subway), Metra (suburban rail), and bus. The guide shows which transit to use, which lines to take, which stops to board and exit at, and, using about 30 detailed mini-area-walking maps, shows exactly how to walk from these stops right to the visitor attractions. Additional nearby points of interest are also indicated on these mini-maps. An ultra-large (very easy to read) official map of Chicago's transit system is also provided. The Chicago guide is concise, compact, and comprehensive and fits in your pocket (leave the bulky books back in the hotel room!). Michael Brein's Chicago guide is part of the world's first and only travel guide series specifically designed to show travelers how to sightsee the top 50 visitor attractions by public transportation in a variety of the world's most visited cities.# Review #Sightseeing like the locals.
