A beautiful journey to Scotland,
By
This review is from: Knopf Guide: Scotland (Paperback)
As beautiful as Knopf Guides are, they tend to be a little light in information. You get a pretty good picture of Scotland in this book, but you better bring along a good Michelen map and make your reservations on the Internet, including the famous Jacobite steam train, well in advance. I expected a little more information on the castles, which are Scotland's biggest draw. No mention that an Explorer Pass can save you big bucks on your visit, especially when traveling as a family. Such a pass entitles to you to as many visits as you can make in 3, 7 or 10 days to Historic Scotland properties including the Edinburgh, Stirling and Urquhart Castles. There is so much to see that one needs to plan his or her itinerary in advance. You also need to budget your money if you are planning on an extended stay because it gets very expensive in Scotland, especially at the quaint little bed and breakfasts and rental cottages that provide cozy settings. The great advantage of a Knopf Guide is that you have a beautiful reference book when you get back home.
