They did it again- another greattop 10 guide!
Considering this guide covers such a wide area of Andalucia it still manages to recommend some of the best of everything that anyone would hope to see in this part of Spain.
I used this guide as the basis of planning a trip to Andalucia, from booking excellent hotels in both Granada and Jaen to visiting amazing sites like the Alhambra palace. We tried to find one of the recommended restaurants but it was so popular that you had to book in advance!
The guide recommends everything from culture, entertainment, restaurants, traditional dishes, places to stay and places to visit. It is based on a grid reference system with pull out maps at the front and the back of the book (that are not complicated to fold away).
I do not visit a new place now without taking a Top 10 guide with me, they are invaluable.
Fabulous little book
Packed full of great photographs, this provides a good overview to the region. It doesn't have lots of detailed info (but that's why you are going to visit - to live it, rather than read about it). It doesn't have a section of useful websites, which is a shame. I stumbled across the town of Ubeda's excellent website by accident and it would be useful if the revised edition includes this and others.
Small enough to take with you, along with a decent road map this should see you through a trip.
