Guide Books
Guide books are incredibly useful in helping even long-term visitors to the UK get the most from their time in the country. So many travellers don't realize what they missed out on until they have left because they weren't informed about the huge variety of experiences and destinations the UK can offer - don't make that mistake!
While there are a multitude of guidebooks on the market, for us there are three that stand out from the pack:
-
'The Rough Guide to Britain' is an unashamedly opinionated but incisive wrap-up of England, Wales, and Scotland. At over 1,000 pages it won't slip in your back pocket, but it is well worth carrying for its detail and coverage of almost all possible UK destinations. The Rough Guide to Britain gets our top billing, and can be bought through amazon.com Recent version due for release on 3 July 2006 from amazon.com
-
