Customer review from the Amazon Vine(tm) Program (What's this?)
I had never really used the Lonely Planet guide books before because I associated them with youth travel, hostels, 4th class trains, etc, and I'm used to traveling in a little more comfort... But something must have happened to Lonely Planet when I wasn't looking, because this guide to Germany is excellent. First rate. Aimed at all levels of travel and all types of travelers. Maybe they've taken most of the hotel recommendations out and made the book almost strictly why to go and what to see, it's better. I also like the size of the book - small enough to fit into a jacket pocket.
The maps are also first rate.

Format:Paperback
This guide has loads of glossy pictures but little content. It is good for a general overview of the Country and not suitable for travellers who know little about Germany. Not recommended for independent travellers who will need more detailed information about the locations and services. Having been to Germany many times before, I mainly used it as a quick reference and loved the suggested itineraries. However, the geographical organisation can be confusing and many cities quoted have no corresponding map. I missed the details of the classic Lonely Planet guides where I can find more descriptions, anedoctes and curiosities (though less pictures). It is OK if one plans to be in an organised tour or uses separate literature on the locations he/she intends to visit, but for more in-depth experience, I suggest to stick to the classic guides.

Format:Paperback
This book is like reading a magazine article, glossy pics and not much content. There is too little detail, and where there is detail it is about obscure areas. Ok if you are on a guided tour, but not for the independant traveller.

Overall a good book for a first trip to Germany
This guide was pretty useful. Since we were camping we didn't take advantage of any of the info regarding hotels and restaurants. Read more
