-
Athens Encounter by Lonely Planet
- Price: £6.99 Add to Basket
- This pocket guide, which includes a pull-out map, largely bypasses historical Athens in favour of its hip, untapped local spots. Independent travellers will find this an intriguing complement to a wider general guide.
-
Brussels, Bruges, Antwerp & Ghent Encounter by Lonely Planet
- Price: £6.99 Add to Basket
- Self-conscious guide that covers a great deal in a short space, and perhaps suffers as a result, particularly as regards Brussels. The pull-out map however is excellent.
-
Central Asia Phrasebook by Lonely Planet
- Price: £4.99 Add to Basket
- A useful phrasebook covering a multitude of languages including Uzbek, Kyrgyz, Kazakh and Tajik.
-
Swahili Phrasebook by Lonely Planet

Bulgaria by Lonely Planet

Pakistan & the Karakoram Highway by Lonely Planet

-

Walking in Scotland by Lonely Planet
- Price: £13.99 Add to Basket
- 66 walks arranged by region with good notes on how to get there and what to bring. The maps are poor, however, and the directions brief. The Pathfinder, AA or Trailblazer guides are much easier to use.
-

-
Ethiopia and Eritrea by Lonely Planet
- Price: £16.99 Add to Basket
- Solid Lonely Planet fare; reliable and with an emphasis on practical detail. A perfectly good guide but having test driven them, we prefer the Bradt.
-
Ethiopian Amharic Phrasebook by Lonely Planet
- Price: £4.99 Add to Basket
- Useful - in fact invaluable - phrasebook.
-
Turkey by Lonely Planet
- Price: £17.99 Add to Basket
- A standard Travel Survival Kit with very good practical information but somewhat cursory description of the sights. For those not addicted to Lonely Planet, we recommend the Rough Guide as much the better general guide.
-
Syria and Lebanon by Lonely Planet
- Price: £14.99 Add to Basket
- Standard recently-updated Lonely Planet that covers the Lebanon as well as Syria, but for the latter the Bradt Guide is much better.
-
St Petersburg by Lonely Planet
- Price: £13.50 Add to Basket
- Carefully researched and recently updated. Geared toward the budget traveller, this guide nonetheless contains enough reading material beyond its listings to make a decent companion for any visitor to St Petersburg.
