3.0 out of 5 stars Too Little of Too Much, 27 Nov 2003

By	"gooddogpippa" - See all my reviews

We bought this as we were going off to Europe in a camper. However, it wasn't that useful, in that Europe is just too big to cram into one book. I suppose if you are really 'doing' Europe on a one -off trip, it would direct you to the best things to see; and certainly it was helpful in pointing out one or two places we wouldn't have seen otherwise. However, in general, if you can get the single volume for the country or area you're going to, that's what I'd do.

5.0 out of 5 stars An invaluable first source of information, 12 April 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Europe 2001: The Rough Guide (Rough Guide Travel Guides) (Paperback)

As per usual Rough Guide offer you a comprehensive insight into all aspects of travelling full of useful information, advice, weblinks and ideas. With info on 31 countries, 100 maps and a massive 1350 pages could be a bit big to take with but you could always photocopy useful bits which include a section of handy words/phrases in 23 languages. Found it a great help in planning a two month trip interrailing round Europe although there are plenty of other options offered on the best way to tour. The book caters for everyone, with examples of accomodation and transportation for all budgets. With information on less conventional or well-known areas to visit as well as the capitals and major cities it will help make your holiday more interesting. A definite pre-holiday buy and a great means to start planning your trip. Value for money and beats buying a differnet guide book for each country especially if you're planning an extensive tour.

5.0 out of 5 stars the worst guide ever, little bit to rough, 11 Aug 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Europe 2001: The Rough Guide (Rough Guide Travel Guides) (Paperback)

I recently went on a backpacking holiday to Europe. We took the Rough Guide 2001 with us and the Lonely Planet guide 1999 with us. The Rough Guide really let us down. Many of the places we stayed in where nothing like the described in the book. Many of the prices for museums etc where also incorrect not by a little amount but by many pounds. In some cities especially the main one such as Paris there were hardly any accomodation listed. All in all the Lonely Planet edition that was out of date, was far more detailed than the rough guide which although is meant to be a rough guide should not leave u out in the cold!. Buy the Lonley Planet far better! happy holidays
