Product Description
Synopsis Malta & Gozo Directions gives you the best of these islands in an easy-to-use format. The "Ideas" section helps you plan your trip with full-colour spreads covering the variety of attractions Malta has to offer, from the fortified town of Valletta and neolithic temples to the best places to eat and drink. The "Places" section breaks the city down into convenient areas, each chapter exploring a particular district, with eating, drinking and shopping options along with a run-down of the sights. "Essentials" lets you know how to get around, where to change money and everything else you might need for a smooth trip, while "Language" has enough phrases and vocabulary to help you make a few local friends.

About the Author
Victor Borg has a well established background in travel writing having been published in Malta, the UK and the USA. He is a regular columnist for the Maltese daily paper, Malta Today.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pocket sized, October 5, 2003
This pocket sized 400 page guide to Malta & surrounding islands is full of facts, details, and helpful hints. This is a British made publication, which means: 1) you have great detail on after hour clubs, bars, and entertainment; 2), there will be practically no attempt to help you with the local language (which for the most part the natives can understand & speak English, even if they are heavily accented); 3) there will be no hesitation to give opinions along with the facts; 4) there will be good information on bus routes and transportation options.
There are only 4 pages of photographs out of the 400, so it helps to team this book up with one like the AAA Spiral Guide which is chock full of photos, but this Rough guide is the one to stick in your pocket when you head out into the street.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Thorough and Concise Guidebook, March 21, 2006
By Mark D. Merlino (Vancouver, British Columbia Canada) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Rough Guides' "Malta & Gozo" is a very handy guidebook. Although it is only 192 pages and pretty light, it is packed with information. The thing that I like most about this book is that it contains detailed maps of all three Islands, Malta, Gozo and Comino, in addition to numerous city maps and plenty of both colour and black and white photos.

The main focus of "Malta & Gozo" is to provide the reader with detailed and up to date descriptions of the main attractions, restaurants and hotels in each community. As well, this guide contains a basic overview of practical information, relating to transportation, money, communication, festivals and language.

One very special bonus is that this book is accompanied by a mini CD, showing the book's contents in digital format. This feature is nice if you would like to take a closer look at the maps provided in the book.

If you would like an up-to-date and thorough guide of Malta, this book is for you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good, but..., December 1, 2008
Great book to read to prep for the trip & to have with you though not the book we used to find our way as we were out sightseeing. Not enough street maps, and there's far more to what we saw of Malta than was in this book.
