These budget guides are for travellers who want to get the best for their money without sacrificing comfort or style.
Included with this edition is a giant full-colour foldout rail map. The advent of the euro, combined with a favourable Australian dollar exchange rate has significantly lowered the price of a European vacation and has made travelling between countries much easier. Package tours and special promotional airfares - both to Europe and within Europe on the new, low-cost airline upstarts-are making Europe even more affordable and accessible. Europe is a four-season destination, as more and more travellers take advantage of super-low off-season airfares. Faster, easier, better: Transportation improvements throughout Europe are making it easier to move around as you see the sights. Cities such as Copenhagen, Athens, and Berlin have all launched new high-speed train systems. A complete sightseeing guide to Europe's sites-including museums, castles, cathedrals, literary landmarks, and more - plus the low-down on what to see and do for free.
