Description

This new guidebook series selects the best aspects of a destination for the lifestyle of today's busy, quality-conscious travellers, with the emphasis on enjoying all aspects of an area when time is at a premium. Must-See Guides focus on all the ingredients of a satisfying short break -- eating out and shopping and relaxation as much as sightseeing. They combine favorite sights with the lesser-known but typical experiences of the place. The magazine-style design and presentation make the guides easy to read and very user friendly. Each guide features: -- In each destination, key areas selected for in-depth treatment -- Every selected area offers all the interests of the visitor - from top sights, hidden cultural treasures and local lifestyles to memorable meals, relaxing cafes and fascinating shops -- Detailed map for each area, highlighting all the places and experiences recommended in the text -- Every area is prefaced with a 'must-do' list describing the very best sights and activities -- Frequent feature chapters on background aspects of the destination -- Includes walks, drives and other opportunities for self-guided discoveries in the destination -- Emphasis on entertainment, events and evening activities -- Introductory sections on current background of the destination - people, trends, living and working in the place -- Final section of practical information, from Airports to Tipping
