4.0 out of 5 stars Holiday Planning, 8 Mar 2009
By D. M. Graham "Venator" (Cornwall, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Rough Guide Directions Algarve (Paperback)
This book is set out logically so that finding specific information is easy. At the same time it is also easy to get a general feel for the Algarve. The book is beautifully presented and illustrated. I highly recommend it to anyone going to the Algarve for the first time.

2.0 out of 5 stars Useful, but a bit of a lightweight, 14 Mar 2009
By Terry L (Stockport, Cheshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rough Guide Directions Algarve (Paperback)
I can usually spend quite a time reading these types of books, but this one just didn't seem to have the same sort of 'meat' as I have found in other books. We stayed in Olhos d'Agua, which isn't covered much at all, and not all the hotels there were covered. It has some useful information in it, but I would have liked more detail.
