About the author

OUR STORY
A beat-up old car, a few dollars in the pocket and a sense of adventure. In 1972 that’s all Tony and Maureen Wheeler needed for the trip of a lifetime – across Europe and Asia overland to Australia. It took several months, and at the end – broke but inspired – they sat at their kitchen table writing and stapling together their first travel guide, Across Asia on the Cheap. Within a week they’d sold 1500 copies and Lonely Planet was born. One hundred million guidebooks later, Lonely Planet is the world’s leading travel guide publisher with content to almost every destination on the planet.

I have wanted to go over to England for as long as I can remember. And finally after so many years of waiting, I can finally say that I will be going over to the UK at the end of this year. I am beyond excited and probably will not ever want to come back to AUS hahah

Lonely Planet is my general go to travel book for anywhere I might be travelling to. This didn’t let me down. Information covers all areas of information you might want.

I guess you never really read Lonely planets cover to cover, but I have spent a lot of time with this in hand, looking for different travel ideas. Certainly worth getting hold of if travelling in England.

My family and I are long-time travelers around the globe, and have developed definite opinions of travel guides over the years. Along with planning travel over the internet, we've basically settled on two different guides to take with us as we go. The Eyewitness Travel Guides are my preference for advanced planning and reading on a particular destination. The Lonely Planet Guides are perfect for our travels while we are on the road. Lonely Planet fills in many of the details that Eyewitness leaves off the pages of their travel guides. Eyewitness gives us the visual for where we are heading, Lonely Planet gives us the filler. Between the two, we've settled on a routine that has suited us well for our travel purposes. Highly recommended!

Easy guide, very useful and handy to search something rather quickly. There are a lot of maps in it, so you can actually plan if you can make it and combine some sightings.
Loved the guide.

Very complete guide but I don’t fancy the organization all that much. Still, tons of information and worth checking out if you’re looking to travel.

So incredibly detailed!

Some good restaurant reviews and tips on London nightlife, but lacking in historical flavor text and all-around accessibility. I found myself turning to Rick Steves' when I wanted a great walk or a sense of the culture of a place, and Lonely Planet when I wanted to find a fancy restaurant.

woo-hoo!!!

Had a lot of the same info the other books I've looked at but focused England instead of adding Wales & Scotland into it.

A helpful guide to getting around, finding places to eat/sleep/explore. Very complete.

[Sophie Crane · Rating 4 out of 5]

An excellent travel guide, with loads of information. A great to tool to plan a trip to England, in particular to places that doesn't appear in travel guides so often.

9/10

Another exceptional edition by Lonely Planet, but then again I am biased with them.
