Nice reference, but too big and heavy to carry on the trip. Eyewitness always does a great job.
I highly recommend this book as a 'must-have' for anyone planning a trip to Australia. It also has a section entitled "Practical Information" which contains useful information on banking & currency, personal security & health, and Australian telephone & postal systems. I'm planning a trip to Australia in Spring and wanted to learn as much as I could before I go. This book provides suggestions on restaurants, accommodations, shopping and entertainment, and includes maps, pictures and illustrations listing important sights to see.
We need to return the book. WE did not get the book on the time, it was sent to us very late.
I love these "Eyewitness" books, and always like to buy them prior to traveling to a new country.Mary
if the area you are interested in is one "less traveled" you may be disappointed in the scanty information supplied. Not surprising.
Wish buying a book would supply the info I seek. Not even my Aussie friends have traveled into the area.
This book has a great deal of good information for travel in Australia. The descriptions are brief and limited.
It really does require deeper research which on it's own can be fun. Unfortunately, as is the case in most travel books.
In this case my chosen destination is the Northern Territories, particularly Darwin.Once again my observation holds true.
