Lonely Planet Best

I recently used Lonely Planet Germany and Austria guides on a trip with my German class, and I must say the experience was wonderful--thanks in large part to Lonely Planet's incomparably thorough information. If you want a first rate trip to Germany, buy this guide.

Lonely Planet Germany (1st Ed).

Like other Lonely Planet Guides, this proved invaluable as we drove the length of Germany from north to south last summer. Even though I am very familiar with Germany having spent lots of time there in my past, the guide was just what we needed to avoid missing places we needed to visit, and avoid those we needed to miss! Thanks Lonely Planet! See www.dalys.com/journal12.html for our German travel journal

A superior travel guide to Germany.

THE LONELY PLANET GERMANY is among the most complete travel guides on the market. Far superior to similar books presented by its better known competitor, THE LONELY PLANET GERMANY presents travel in Germany to the widest range of budgets, from elegant to thrifty. It describes a wider range of sites to visit than any other guidebook I've seen, and offers good advice toward the widest range of entertainment interests. THE LONELY PLANET GERMANY should be the first book you buy when planning any trip to Germany, and it would serve well as your only guidebook.

An American in Germany

Living and working in Germany is an experience I feel lucky to have. When I have time to travel, this book is invaluable. My beat up, well-used copy is my bible when it comes to finding cheap places to stay (hostels, etc.), or interesting places to visit, eat, or tour. Worth every cent I paid for it, and much more to boot!
