An irreverent guide to Europe offers advice on entertainment, shopping, and sightseeing, identifies the overrated, and recommends restaurants, hotels, and night spots. This description may be from another edition of this product.
This is a hilarious read! However, if you don't remember what it's like to be in your 20's, you may find it a bit sophomoric. But hey...big deal! You should read this on the plane to Europe, or on the way back. Or it would make an excellent gift for a college student who plans on backpacking through Europe. I highly recommend it if you want a fun read and a crazy ride through Europe.
Classic, hilarous book

I bought this and Let's Go! for my trip, and quickly discovered that Let's Go was good for a couple of boring, practical things, but this book actually was entertaining. Great conversation piece on those long train rides when you want to break the ice, so to speak.
Hysterical, but useful

This is, without a doubt, the best travel book I have ever read. I wish I had had it with me when I was still traveling to Europe, now I'm too poor so I just read this book and relive my trips. This book nails so many things right on the head, even though some of the information (like on communism) is severely outdated. But for the college student who wants to see major locales and get an idea of what there *really* is to do, this book is supreme.
This is by far the best bargain on the travel shelf

This is a very funny book with some practical advice and information thrown in. The writers' sarcastic wit puts the Harvard biblical travel industry in its appropriate place. It also skewers the modern-day Ugly American travelling around as many cities as they can fit into their 1 week itinerary, going wherever their guidebook leads them. If you've already been to Europe ,you'll appreciate the humor ever more.
Great all around travel guide!

I used Let's Blow Thru Europe as my guide book while traveling through Europe for 2 months. It was my Bible. Enjoyable reading and good advise.
