4.0 out of 5 stars
Our travel bible!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Lonely Planet Rhodes & Dodecanese (Paperback)
This guide really did become our bible on our recent trip to the Dodecanese...we found ourselves saying over and over 'well, the guide says...' and, 'check in the guide book.' Nearly all the restaurant and lodging suggestions were right on, and the maps were sufficient for what you need. If you want to do a vacation just in the Dodecanese, I highly recommend this book!! The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that it is a bit outdated by now, with prices still in drachmas.

A question of cost,

This review is from: Lonely Planet Rhodes & Dodecanese (Paperback)
This is just a question: why is the price for this book $63.63? Let me know if it was just a typo, please.
