5.0 out of 5 stars Best Review For Island Hoppers, 5 Feb 2006
By A Customer
This review is from: Greek Island Hopping 2005: The Island Hopper's Bible (Independent Traveller's Guides) (Paperback)
Being a "Greek Island Fan" as long as one is totally independant, this book has really been the most useful of anything written until now. Having travelled to 6-7 islands over a month last year, we found that it was reasonably up to date. Wanted to send some new info, but when one is loving every minute of being there, we never seemed to get down to writing it down when we got home.

Will try to do better this year!

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential island hopping bible!!, 19 May 2003
This book is fantastic detailed - it really helps you choose which islands to visit and then how to make the most of them when you get there, and the ferry information is as good as it possibly can be (Greek ferries being fairly random). Far superior to any other similar guides, unless you just want to know the location of the nearest post office etc.

It really seems like this guy has explored every inch of every single island covered! And its written in a very readable informal style too, and made me laugh a few times, which is a first for a guide book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Greek Island Hopping 2003
While this book contains alot of useful information on how to literally navigate the Greek ferry system, it is seemingly targeted at travellers on shoestring budgets. Read more

I would love to have directly quoted from Mr Poffley's book but unfortunately we threw it overboard on a ferry somewhere between Serifos and Milos. Read more
