Reader Reviews
Having traveled extensively I purchased this book to outline and plan my trip. It provided very little which was useful and lacked most of the details that a modern travel book would contain such as web sites and a relative ranking of the establishements recommended. After reading the book I ended up using the internet for information and booking. This travel pack might be useful if one were taking a prepackaged tour and wanted supplemental information. Although the included map is useful, I would save my money and use the internet.
