.Australia (Footprint Travel Guide)

What an excellent find. I highly recommend it, both for Australia and Western Australia. It's new, different and has information that other guide books just don't have.

After utilising the Lonely Planet books through various countries, I became increasingly frustrated with the format, inaccuracies and out of date information. Above all, I was sick of being one of the crowd, following other LP readers from place to place, having the same conversations.

A few years ago in South America, and using the LP SA, I had the lucky nature to photocopy a few pages from the Footprint SA handbook. Wow. Bible thin paper and stacked full of quality information. Yes it took a small while to get used to the format, but from then on there ... Read More:

I've never used Footprint's guides before and I took this one as an experiment. After one day in Luxor (the only place I visited) I realised it was badly out of date. Ticket prices had in some cases doubled. Restaurant listings bore little resemblance to the places described; one map lacked a scale and another had an entrance misplaced. I will be feeding back more directly to Footprint. But I felt let down and disappointed by this guide.

I am 21 and have lived in Athens all my life. I read the Athens part of this book and thought it was perfect - really well written and proves that the author really has knowledge of life in Athens.

Perfect for young and/or the social, the places mentioned are well worth visiting and give a proper insider's tour to the real Athens, Greece.
Enjoy your trip!

.Malaysia Handbook: The Travel Guide (Footprint Handbooks)

This book is brill. Forget Lonely Planet and Rough Guide, amongst my group of friends we took all three with us on a four week backpacking mission and found Footprint to be by far the most comprehensive and up to date. It has all you need to know about food, accomodation and transport with realistic estimates on prices to help you plan your budget. Rammed packed with suggested itineries and activities as well as loads of info on Malaysia's culture and history, this book helps you really make the most of your travels. But the best thing is its got loads of maps of even the smallest places so when you turn up knackered at your destination you dont have to worry about getting lost with a hefty backpack in tow! Also has really good info to help ... Read More:
