New Perspectives 
The ability to capture the spirit of the city it’s written about is just one of the elements that makes Louis Vuitton City Guides unique. The 10th edition goes even further. For each city a distinguished figure reveals their favourite off-the-beaten track addresses.

New Features 
The 2010 edition of City Guides are as practical as they are unique. Schematic maps allow travellers to find their bearings easily and identify the city’s key addresses. While a new themed approach and a cultural focus unlocks surprising treasures. For example, in the Rome City Guide the Italian actress Isabella Ferrari shines a spotlight on movie locations. The new editions also bear a new design that draws its inspiration from the vintage labels that the House used for its trunks and luggage in the past.
