The 30 min. Italy tape covers San Marino, Jesolo, Rimini, Cattolica and Venice. Does not cover the wonderful glassmakers in Venice. The video quility is poor and spends to much time on people and not scenery. Looks to much like a home video and not an informational tape.The narration is good, but does not go into enough detail. If you have been to these places, it might be more interesting. The tape on Germany covers the Alps and Franfurt,Bavaria, Bademia, Wurttemberg and Black Forest. Also includes sites from the cities of Munich, Nurnberg, Wurzburg and Heidelberg.This one has some good scenic video, but the sound quailty is poor and the narration is dull. Once again,if you have been to these places your imagination can fill in the many blanks.
