5.0 out of 5 stars
Useful and enjoyable,
By alsion (Bristol) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Montenegro (Bradt Travel Guides) (Paperback)
Having just written a poor review for the Bradt Bosnia guide, this guide is quite a contrast and in my opinion excellent. Bradt gives their authors more freedom than other guides which means each book might not be to everyone's tastes or expectations from the series. Annalisa Rellie to me struck the perfect balance between showing a passion for the country (something often lacking in factual RG/LP guides) yet providing comprehensive and concise information. I did think that there was detailed information about the beaches, although I prefer hiking and found the descriptions of Durmitor and areas around Skadar lake to be very useful and informative. Montenegro is a very small country and we actually walked a large chunk of the coast in a couple of hours one afternoon. I also liked the inserted stories and reader feedback along the way, and Rellie's dose wit without being arrogant like I somtimes find LP authors (there's apparently a humouress twist on the tourist board slogan: "Visit Monetenegro - your car is already here!"). I used public transport and did find the practical information very helpful, although Bradt guides are always going to be phyisically shorter than a RG. I like the independence that Bradt guides give you by providing information on lots of places rather than just hand holding with fine detail on only a few places. And I also simply enjoyed the style of writing of Rellie - very enjoyable.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Brilliantly researched guide to Montenegro,
By A Customer
This review is from: Montenegro (Bradt Travel Guide Montenegro) (Paperback)
Annalisa Rellie clearly loves her subject, and she has done it justice. Montenegro is a fascinating place, and this guide is the only one which is up to date and explains the best places to go, the culture, and the history and background. She writes with wit and understanding. Go to Montneegro soon, while it's still a secret (and much more exciting the the over-hyped Croatia) but don't go without the Bradt Guide to Montenegro.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Very useful guide to a not well-known country,
This review is from: Montenegro (Bradt Travel Guides) (Paperback)
I bought this book before my trip to Montenegro, trying to find all sorts of information, from hotels to sights and other spots of interest. Not only did it help me find myself a decent accomodation in the always crowded Budva area, but it also helped me find useful information on getting around and seeing other parts of the country by train. Most of the prices listed were still the same, so it's pretty up-to-date. The only disadvantage is that some maps it contains are a bit oversimplified, so they are not that useful when you actually start wondering in a city. It could deserve even 5 stars, but I give it 4 because of the maps.
