Voor vele landen net zo goed, zo niet beter dan de Planet. Beduidend soberder uitgevoerd, maar ook met veel informatie voor backpackers en met veel kaartmateriaal. Een aanrader!

This new, fully revised seventh edition of Bradt's Albania remains the most authoritative standalone guide to what is still a relatively little known part of Europe. Coverage is comprehensive, starting in the capital, Tirana, then moving through central, northern and southern Albania to provide all the information needed for a successful trip. Included are knowledgeable and rigorously researched historical and archaeological background, detailed notes on popular and less well-known hiking routes and other outdoor activities, and specialist contributions on wildlife, military history and other topics.

An unparalleled wealth of practical advice for the independent traveller is also offered. Albania has something to offer almost everyone. Many come for the spectacular, unspoilt mountain scenery and the hiking and cycling opportunities.

Others are interested in the country's heritage, such as the Ottoman cities of Gjirokastra and Berati (both UNESCO World Heritage Sites), the many outstanding archaeological sites, and the Byzantine religious art in the medieval churches and in museums in Tirana, Korca and Berati. Beaches such as Dhermiu and Jala in the south are popular with young backpackers, while in high season the resorts are full of Albanian-speaking Kosovars and Macedonians. Ornithologists have long been attracted to Albania, even during the Communist period when the country was all but closed to most foreign visitors, thanks to its many different habitats and the fact it lies on several migration routes.

For city slickers, lively Tirana offers shopping malls, cycle paths, museums, art galleries and historic buildings, yet in the countryside, especially in the mountains, villagers still live much as their grandparents did, tending their goats and sheep, spinning wool and making their own cheese and yogurt. Many villagers have opened up their homes as guest houses, offering a wonderful opportunity to experience local culture first-hand. All of this - and more - is covered in Bradt's Albania, the ideal companion for a perfect trip.

Er bestaat geen Lonely Planet van Burkina Faso. Daarom vermelden wij de enige goede, die van Bradt Guides. Voor Afrikaanse landen net zo goed, zo niet beter dan de Planet. Beduidend soberder uitgevoerd, maar ook met veel informatie voor backpackers en met veel kaartmateriaal. Een aanrader!

This new guide to Burkina Faso brings to life the many attractions of this stable country which offers a thriving culture, laidback cities and stunning wildlife encounters. The authors help visitors discover dramatic mask festivals, Fulani horse-dancing and both the pan-African Siao film festival and the Fespaco craft fair, both in Ougadougou - two of the largest events of their kind on the continent. The romance of the Sahel desert can also be explored and information on desert markets, camel safaris and secret dune encampments is covered for the intrepid traveller

Reader Reviews

"I would like to send a massive thank you to Katrina and James, the authors of the Burkina Faso guide. I have just returned from a 3-week trip to Burkina and found the book absolutely fantastic! In a group of a dozen French I was the only Brit, and we found the guide to far surpass the other guides in French in terms of the amount of detail of information given and the quality of the information. The country was indeed a marvellous place, and on at least half a dozen occasions did people mention how they had met Katrina and Jim."

Nepal ist wieder da: Nachdem das Land im Himalaya in vorangegangenen Jahren von einer politischen Krise nach der anderen erschüttert worden war, ist inzwischen wieder relative Ruhe eingekehrt. Das ehemalige Königreich ist heute eine maoistische Republik und die stabilisierten politischen Verhältnisse lassen wieder Touristen ins Land strömen.

Das kulturelle wie auch touristische Herz Nepals schlägt im Kathmandu Valley, einem fruchtbaren grünen Tal, das ebenso viel Naturschönheit bietet wie kulturhistorische Sehenswürdigkeiten. Kaum irgendwo sonst auf der Welt gibt es auf so engem Raum so viele historische Bauwerke, die zum Weltkulturerbe gerechnet werden: Hunderte von mittelalterlich anmutenden Tempeln und Palastanlagen in einer bezaubernden Hügel- und Berglandschaft. Die Nepalesen erzählen Legenden über ihre wohlmeinenden Götter und auch die Touristen werden sich der Magie des Tales nicht entziehen können. Das Kathmandu Valley ruft und lockt wieder, und es verzaubert.

Der Reiseführer begleitet den Leser auf der Reise ins Kathmandu Valley mit spannendem Hintergrundwissen, zahlreichen praktischen Tipps und detaillierten Informationen zu Verkehrsverbindungen, Unterkunft, Gesundheit, Sicherheit und allen weiteren relevanten Themen.

Uitstekende wandelgids voor dit uitdagende wandelgebied. Goede beschrijvingen en detail informatie. Voor kaartmateriaal zouden we toch de kompass kaart adviseren, de kaarten in het boek schieten wat dat betreft te kort.

An informative map showing the location of the most important ancient monuments of Roman Britain. The map has been produced by Ordnance Survey in collaboration with the Ancient Monument Trusts of England, Scotland and Wales, so as to provide an authoritative map of the historical sights of Great Britain. It also contains valuable background details on life in Britain during this formative period. This Ordnance Survey Historical map and guide is a fascinating possession for the interested and enthusiastic historians of today.

Goede overzichtskaart van Florida op redelijke schaal. Het is een tweezijdige kaart, waarbij het noordelijk deel op de ene kant en het zuidelijke - meest gebruikte - deel op de andere kant staat. Helder kleurgebruik met schaduwwerking waardoor de ligging van de bergruggen wat duidelijk wordt dan op andere kaarten. 

Wegnummers worden vermekd, alsmede de gradatie in de wegen, van gravelroads tot de highways. Met symbolen worden enkele bezienswaardigheden aangeduid en zijn de Nationale Parken terug te vinden op de kaart. Campings worden weergegeven met een wat moeilijk leesbaar symbool en het is maar de vraag of dit op deze schaal gedetailleerd genoeg is om volledig te zijn, daar kun je volgens ons niet echt op vertrouwen.
