.France (Lonely Planet Country Guide)

from: Lonely Planet Publications

January 08, 2007
Always been a very big fan of Lonely Planet guides... they have helped me round India, Nepal, Pakistan, France, Italy and Ireland. As my old copy is pre-Euro I thought I'd get a new up to date copy. Wish I hadn't. I've been looking at the Paris section... we are taking our children and I was interested in Parc d'Asterix... no mention. Several pages on Disney. Lots of other destinations on our 'tick list' are missing.

Nice photography as ever, and the usual clear concise style. I realise they cna't put everything in the guide but these are major omissions. Not recommended. Sorry Lonely Planet!

.Spain (Lonely Planet Country Guide)

by: Damien Simonis, Susan Forsyth, John Noble

March 01, 2007
The Lonely Planet guidebooks are deservedly the default choice for many travellers. This lastest edition (2007) of the Lonely Planet guide to Spain goes a long way to answering those critics who say that European countries have sometimes been Lonely Planet's Achille's heel. This is an excellent guidebook to Spain, both for those who just want to visit the well-known highlights as well as for those who enjoy getting off the beaten track. The language is informal, perhaps a reflection of the publisher's target audience and the overall feel is unstuffy.

The book is organised into regional chapters, with Madrid and Barcelona being given their own. The first hundred pages or so are dedicated to themes such as history, culture architecture, ... Read More:

.Greece (Lonely Planet Country Guide)

I have visited quite a few Greek islands and found this book extremely useful. I recently went to the Cyclades and the detail was excellent, however if you're going to Syros/Myknonos area I'd also pack Nobble Hospital of the Aegean by Paul Judges which offers some fascinating insights.

.Tuscany and Umbria (Lonely Planet Country and Regional Guides)

by: Nicola Williams, et al

February 01, 2008
..instead of having to pay through the nose for a copy in a Sienese bookshop. As ever, LP guides have the feeling of being written by someone who's actually been there, and the advice on San Gimignano (get there early or go in Winter) would have been worth it alone.

This is an excellent guide, especially if - like us - you were roaming over both regions during your holiday. Highly recommended

.Germany (Lonely Planet Country Guide)

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.

.Croatia (Lonely Planet Country Guide)

by: Jeanne Oliver

March 01, 2007
This is a handy book, but doesn't convey a great deal of feeling or enthusiasm for the place and feels a little bare. Luckily I stumbled upon the Cadogan guide to Croatia by James Stewart which really enthuses the reader and gives more information of all kinds, so I recommend that one.
