[Tamara · Rating 1 out of 5]

This book was given to me as a gift. Unfortunately, it really doesn't have enough information on the things I really wanted information on. Some of the places I was researching in Scotland weren't even included in the guide. The guide does list websites for main attractions which is helpful but I could have found those through google for free.

Has some good information, but small maps, and with the places listed alphabetically by region, unless you really know Scotland, it would be hard to plan an itinerary using just this one.
