        This classic is the tell-all of travel series. Contributors make recommendations and reveal everything about the destination country: trip-preparation tips, common and important words and phrases to know in the local language, outdoor and indoor adventures at both popular and lesser-known attractions, family activities, annual festivals, cultural and historical references and details, the weather and the impact climate change has had on the country, transportation options, the food, music, and nightlife scenes, and much more. Two things set these books apart from other hefty guides: they note in detail what women and LGBTQIA+ people might need to consider when they travel, and they show how travelers can connect their experiences from one stop to another. VERDICT Classic. Comprehensive. Crucial. This series is as important as the Fodor's, Frommer's, and Rick Steves guides. It is a must for travelers who thrive on recommendations and who want to know everything they can do and see in a given country.
