.Eastern Europe (Lonely Planet Multi Country Guide)
City Travel Guides > Books > Travel and Holiday
by: Tom Masters

February 01, 2007
Having just spent 3 weeks in Romania, Macedonia & Albania - this guide was a true travel companion.

Having used the 2005 version of this guide to travel around Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia & Croatia in March 2006 - this one was much more useful and the writers had gone to great pains to make everything accurate (unlike their Western Balkans guide which was awash with misinformation and inaccuracies, normally regarding telephone numbers etc)

Having also brought the Bradt Albania guide with us (thank god we never relied on this as their pricing information for accommodation was grossly out of date & there was a real laziness in updating vital information) the Lonely Planet was the one that got grubbiest from ... Read More:

I have just returned from touring France with my husband, daughter and her friend.
We used Alan Rogers Guide to find suitable campsites.
Each site was well described with facilities listed clearly and accurately.
I would highly recommend this book.

.AA Road Atlas New Zealand (AA Road Atlases)
City Travel Guides > Books > Travel and Holiday
by: Automobile Association (Great Britain)

September 01, 2005
I won't go into too much detail of the content of the atlas as the previous review has done that excellently. What I would like to say though is that having used this atlas it is actually much more than just a road map. It has so many places of interest and things to do in it that it could be the only book you need to plan your trip. I would really recommend finding places to go from this atlas and avoiding the large crowds at the places listed in travel guides. Obviously this is also an ideal road map for if you driving on your holiday and has plans of many major cities (and smaller ones). Get yourself this Atlas and save the trouble os getting a travel guide too. You won't be disappointed by this.

.Big Road Atlas Britain (AA Atlases) (AA Atlases)
City Travel Guides > Books > Travel and Holiday
by: Automobile Association (Great Britain)

July 01, 2007
What set this 'AA' version apart from the others for me was the 'free magnetic tax disc holder' offered with the deal, however on arrival the addition was missing and there was a clear sticky trace where it had once sat.

I have contacted Amazon and hopefully the replacement they are sending will include the tax disc holder, however it is not impressive how these 'free gifts' are obviously not protected from removal prior to shipping.

The atlas itself is very clear and easy-to-use. I cannot raise fault with the product, just the service itself.

.The Lost Continent: Travels in Small Town America
City Travel Guides > Books > Travel and Holiday
by: Bill Bryson

January 02, 1999
Can't remember a book that made me laugh out loud, and in public! Not sure why the other reviewers didn't like it but when I read the passages that had me doubled over to my partner he didn't seem to get it either, so I guess it's a case of 'suck it & see'. It's refreshing to read something that doesn't constantly sing America's praises. I'll definately read more.

.Germany (Lonely Planet Country Guide)
City Travel Guides > Books > Travel and Holiday
by: Andrea Schulte-Peevers

March 01, 2007
I have only recently discovered the delights of Germany, and this book provides a decent amount of information to get you started. The history bit at the front, maps and language bit at the back are just three of the particularly useful features of this book. A must for people travelling to Germany.

This is a great guide with simple straightforward information about the region. It is easy to use and has plenty of pictures and photographs - I can't stand travel guides that are just pages of text.
