Product Description

This guide divides Catalonia into touring areas - one per chapter. Major cultural centres or cities form chapters in their own right. The best of Catalonia is included, such as Barcelona, Daliland and the Costas Brava and Daurada. Neighbouring regions are also featured, such as Bilbao, the Basque Country, the Rioja wine country and Pamplona. Each chapter contains enough attractions to provide at least a day's worth of activities - often more - and has an introduction that sums up the main attractions and a ratings box. It is then divided into an alphabetical gazetteer and a suggested tour. In every chapter you will find lodging and eating recommendations for individual towns, or for the area as a whole. A locator map in the introduction to the book shows the position of the tours. Among the tours are: the luscious Costa Esmeralda (Emerald Coast), Bilbao, the Vizcayan Coast that stretches beyond Bilbao, the Catalan Pyrenees and the Costa Brava. No touring holiday is complete without one of these essential guides. A great combination of guidebook and route map, they contain everything the self-drive traveller needs en route. It includes unique guidebooks for fly-drive travellers. It provides road safety information for drivers. It includes descriptive instruction setting the scene for the route ahead. Rules of the road are explained for each destination. It includes full-colour detailed maps with major destinations and places of interest along the route clearly pinpointed.
