  Uzbekistan by Odyssey

  Price: £16.95    Add to Basket

  The only English guide available to Uzbekistan but luckily it is excellent. Illustrated with vibrant colour photographs, it combines practical information for either the traveller or the businessman with a detailed history of the culture and architecture of the country.

  Afghanistan: A Companion and Guide by Odyssey

  Price: £24.95    Add to Basket

  A hefty, beautifully-illustrated volume which includes 3,500 years of Afghan history and notes on the culture, art, religion, music, food and nature of each region. The guide to each area includes recommended guest houses, restaurants, sights or treks but it is worth taking the Lonely Planet too for easy-to-use practical information.

  Eastern Europe by Lonely Planet

  Price: £19.99    Add to Basket

  Lonely Planet's compilation guides are best suited to backpackers with a limited time frame and a full itinerary. It is also worth noting that this one has some cross-over with the Central Europe guide. Ideal for a whistle-stop tour of the cities, with an eye for budget travel and good mapping.
