1.0 out of 5 stars Spend your money elsewhere!!!, December 29, 1997

This review is from: Let's Go 98 Greece & Turkey (Annual) (Paperback)

I've been living in Turkey for 18 months now and this is about the worst guidebook I've seen! I've used Lonely Planet and Rough Guide and they've both been good, but borrowed a friends Let's Go for a recent trip to Cyprus. We might as wel have just looked at what interested us once there. While it listed sites, the directions on how to get there were abominable, and we ended up taking a horrendous trip over a mountainous goat track trying to find an abbey that ended up being just off the main road The maps are worse than useless.

If you're looking for a useful guide to Turkey, don't waste your money on this book. Its authors obviously had no real feel for the country or understanding of its history and their suggestions are not of much help. The Lonely Planet guide is far and away the best available.

Just got back from a six week trek and island hop round Greece! I had a wonderful time and couldn't have met my budget and rigorous itinerary without Let's Go's extensive budget hotel and restaurant options. I though the writing style was witty and I knew I could trust the hip nightlife picks for my more debauched nights on the islands!
