Customer Reviews

Very dry
This book reads like a dictionary - and A-Z list of places to visit, with very little information about each place (lots of quoted websites which is next to useless when travelling) and no scoring system to enable you to select the highlights. It is all black and white, and small typeface. Even the maps are not user friendly. I've used many travel guides and this is the worst I've found. I am sending it back immediately.
