After using Rod Heikell's excellent pilot books, this Danube guide is a big disappointment. It is not the fault of the writer, but the time. It has been almost 20 years since it was written, what is very much for a book purchased by readers who are planning trip on this great river. Very few practical advices, most of them useless. Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria is in the EU, Yugoslavia is not on the map any more, it can not be up to date. If you look for a practical guide for a Danube trip do not waste money for it.
