Traveling to Spain
The guidebook “spain” was excellent. I used it for planning the trip to Madrid, Barcelona and Toledo.

Great tool for travel planning a quick trip to this region of England
I visited Oxford las month and this Pocket Guide was a great value. Sights and pubs reviews were spot on. One thing though: during graduation season, several sights are closed down for private events. Duke Humfrey's library and the Sheldonian Theater were unavailable during my trip. Maybe there's a note in the guide which I might have missed, but a heads-up on this would be nice.

really helpful
I love the lonely Planet Guides, they are so useful when travelling. It Had all the Importamt information about the regions in Tasmania, so we could plan our Roadtrip without googling for hours. The Cape Raoul Track was beautiful, as Well as many other places recommended Here. The prices of the ferry etc. Are also helpful. Thank you!

My 7 year old loves this book
My 7 year old is currently super interested in geography and the world. I previously had bought the Travel Book for kids and he loved it so much that I then bought The Cities Book as well as The Flags Book. He love to read all three of the books together, cross referencing each to learn about the country, flag, and city. His only complaint is that the cities book did not include Tbilisi, which we visited last year.
