This whole series of books is seriously inspiring and a complete joy to browse through. The photos are breathtaking, the commentary is engaging and the whole book is thoroughly compelling. I've already booked my next holiday to include 3 of the suggestions made in these books!

We are planning a fly-drive trip to the USA and we have been looking for information/things to do in places.We initially looked at the Foders books but then stumbled across this book. What a fantastic informative book, the only problem with having this book is we need to book a longer holiday !!!
It is excellent value for money and a must have for fly-drive touring of the USA.

I have been using the seat61 website since 2002 and it has helped me plan loads of fab train trips - to Budapest, Berlin, Granada, Lisbon, Rome and others. Now the book means I can continue planning from the comfort of my Saturday morning lie in, dreaming the morning away! Not just Seat 61 - he deserves a seat in the House of Lords!

I love going to new places and this book is great at giving you enough information about lots of different types of places you can visit to allow you to decide whether you would enjoy going there. The pictures are amazing and really give you that holiday feeling.
My only criticism..it was missing places that I felt should have been in the book!

When the blurb says that this is an easy to use guide it, rather unusually, has it spot on.This book guides you through your trip to Orlando, the theme parks, other entertainmnet, night life and most importantly shopping (well maybe not).

I neded an overview on all South American countries and i got what i wanted - the directory at the back, a useful overview of S/A is just what i wanted.
Like all travel books they soon date and each author of each country writes from their opinion, which is not bad, but as in all L/P books there is so much repitition which could be covered in see appendix a, b , c etc. We all know that certain places are dangerious (the world over) and that you should not leave your bag lying around at the station - we hear these annoucments hourly at the airport!

This guide book is the best I've read. The advice was invaluable and I trusted the recommendations, especially when it came to accommodation. It very quickly became my travelling companion and I followed its advice as much as I could. Don't leave home without it!
