I used this book when I was in London for a week with a small backpack. I was looking for a condensed guide book with practical advice and a quality map. I was not disappointed! I used this book ti make plans on the plane and referred to it and the map constantly during my journey. When traveling light or wanting a book and map for day trips, this is the way to go.
