Not the best guide available

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 April 2022

Verified Purchase

This guide contains some basic information about how to travel around Europe by train, but it lacks detail. The book is also very badly edited and I kept noticing missing words and incomplete sentences - it's disappointing that more effort wasn't made to check the proofs before printing. There are much better guides available. This one doesn't contain much of the interest and insight provided by more experienced and enthusiastic authors. There are some lovely pictures, but that doesn't make up for the lack of substance and sloppy editing.

Excellent coffee table book but points you to "real" guides

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 July 2022

Verified Purchase

I expected maps and got full page pictures of cities. I expected detailed maps of particular countries, I got overview maps (Lisbon to Moscow over two pages.

I think this was more 60% tourist guide, 40% travel guide. My gut reaction was to send it back and find a better book. In fact I might still do it! It did however point me in the direction of "the man in seat 61". That guy seems much more focused on trains and train travel rather than describing destinations. If you are unsure where you want to go then focus on this as a travel guide to Europe. Should you already know where you want to go this may simply frustrate. Sadly I am two days out of the return window.

It is a great coffee table book and as such I would give it five stars!

The font is large and double spaced with wide margins, photos are in colour but I am not sure I need a picture of a cafe with the legend: "Above: Parisian cafes are perfect for a drink, a snack or just a spot of people-watching" (page 170) The pages are thick and the pages are sewn rather than glued, it is an impressive book -with the focus firmly on layout and design.

Sadly the focus was taken away from informative content.

I would have removed all the pictures of cafes or museums and replaced them with maps.
I would have forgone the 3D printing into the hardback cover and gone for a tough plastic/fabric cover.
I would have reduced the size by 40% and used 10 point font single spaced rather than 14 point double.
I would have given detailed info. on specific countries focused on traversing distinct from exploring.
My guide would have been smaller, lighter and ideal for a handbag/rucksack and NOT a coffee table book

Very useful if you need route inspiration.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 May 2022

The book shows you train routes through Europe. I think it would have been really great and inspiring if you just wanted to go on "a train trip" rather than travel through specific countries. I want to travel from estonia south to Turkey and this route was not discussed so I decided to return the book.

Really looking forward to planning my trip - what a fanrastic book.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 June 2022

This is a brilliant book written by Lonely Planet. It explains how to travel by train instead of plane, citing how you will see more from a train window. Gives advice on buying tickets, how timetables work and what to pack as well as many other interesting facts. Even if you’re not planning on travelling yet, it makes good reading and you can sit and plan your next trip!
