DK Eyewitness Travel Guide Scotland DK Travel 9781465440532 Books Reviews
- This latest DK Eyewitness Guide is an excellent one-stop resource for planning a vacation in Scotland. It offers a terrific combination of pictures, maps, facts and commentary, more than enough to allow the visitor to find not only the major tourist attractions but also some of the unique places and events off the beaten path that may be even more worthwhile as destinations.
This Eyewitness Guide includes a nice history of Scotland, up to and including the most recent debate over devolution, as well as practical information on travel, customs, money, safety, and climate. There are some good tips on what to eat and what to get as uniquely Scottish souvenirs. The cut-away sketches and diagrams of castles and other historical sites will increase the visitor's appreciation of some wonderfully interesting venues, such as the castles at Edinburgh and Sterling. The guide even manages to work in a few tips on where to hike. This reviewer and his wife have found previous editions of this guide, supplemented by local maps and the websites listed in the guide, to be entirely adequate to plan and enjoy weeks in the beautiful Scottish Highlands. "DK Eyewitness Travel Guide Scotland" is very highly recommended. - Didn't really add much more than was covered in the Great Britain book. I was expecting more depth in the "stand alone" Scotland book.

"DK Eyewitness Travel Guide Scotland" is very highly recommended. - I bought this for my husband and he loves it. It has been very useful for planning a trip to Scotland. He found two or three things in the book that he had not known about previously including the fact that his current credit card would probably not be accepted there. Very helpful guide.
- Dreaming of returning to Scotland & this book is giving us good information for planning our next trip. Even if you can't travel to Scotland in person this book will give you hours of info & pictures.
- DK guides never disappoints me - thorough coverage, exceptional photographs, lively descriptions. My only criticism is that the print is a tad too tiny.
- These travel books are the best. Makes it easy to plan what to see and where to go without overwhelming you with extraneous information. We use them wherever we travel to.
- Well edited and straightforward. Gives you the information that you need. Had several guidebooks to compare and this was the one I kept coming back to. I have a new found respect for this series.
