Oz East Coast Rough Guide Rocks!,
By austex (Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Rough Guide to East Coast Australia 1 (Rough Guide Travel Guides) (Paperback)
This is one of the finest guidebooks I have used. The authors write concisely, to the point and with some humor as well. Content is comprehensive -- they have really put some mileage on their shoes and gotten far down into the details for us. Organization is functional and easy to follow, or to skip around in the book. Authors use to advantage many insert boxes to highlight special content or discussions of places of outstanding interest (e.g., Great Barrier Reef). Users should be aware that the geographic coverage of the content is a fairly narrow band all along the east coast of Victoria, NSW and Queensland. What is covered is covered extremely well. But if you want or need detailed information on areas inland from the coast, you must use the internet or buy a guidebook with comprehensive coverage.

This review is from: The Rough Guide to East Coast Australia 1 (Rough Guide Travel Guides) (Paperback)
Before going on a summer vacation to Australia, I wanted to buy a book that could help me know a little about the history of Australia, the places, wildlife, activities, nightlife, etc. I decided to buy this one and I dont regret it at all. THIS BOOK HAS EVERYTHING. It has maps, phone numbers, prices, times. It is very very detailed. Buy this book before going to Australia.
