5.0 out of 5 stars An outstanding city guide to Dubrovnik, 23 Nov 2001
By sandy@calico.uk.net (Cromarty, Scotland) - See all my reviews
Some travel guides tell you far more than you want to know. This excellent compact and up to date book is ideal for the visitor with up to a week or so to spend in this enchanting city. Beatifully illustrated, it is nonetheless pocket-sized and an ideal companion for the discriminating tourist. It provides a straightforward history of the city along with comment on its art and architecture. but the real delight of the book lies in the detailed descriptions of five suggested walks around the old town. Some of these take the reader into places the casual tourist would otherwise miss, and give a real insight into the lives of the local population. Also provided are a few recommended excursions into the surrounding countryside and off-shore islands. All in all, quite the most useful city guide I have come across.

3.0 out of 5 stars good, but not enough, 24 Aug 2004
This guidebook is definitely outstanding in terms of providing historical and cultural background to Dubrovnik. The restaurant recommendations are also spot on. However, it lacks the kind of easy layout that LP and the Rough Guide have, listing the sites and letting you make your own way in seeing them. In other words the sites are only listed in this book as part of their recommended walks. If you're not willing to go on these walks -- we have a little child, it was very hot, and frankly we are a bit too independent minded to follow these things -- then the book can be very difficult to use. We are glad we had this book, but are also glad that we had the other guidebooks; if we only had this one we would have been a bit lost.
