Great product...reasonably priced.4
This was a great book,especially since I'm planning a family trip to Europe. Deeming it was a year older...it was very reasonable in price. Thanks.

This guidebook is actually fun to read, although it is lacking in more details you might be looking for. Great tips, and really interesting facts.

Good, but mainly geared towards Americans3
Looking through the pages, many helpful ideas can be obtained about traveling throughout Europe, however, most information presented is American centric, leaving those of us outside of the US in the dark when it comes to certain aspects of the information stated. I would probably say that this book would be exceptionally handy for an American tourist that is Europe bound, but not as useful to the majority of people living in the rest of the world.
