A very good start to learning Europe.

Pros:
- casually written
- not too wordy
- lots of tips, heads-up, things to avoid, etc
- suggests itineraries with different themes (romance, kids, art-lovers, etc)

Cons:
- focused on the big cities only, even the overrated ones, (which is only fair as covering the whole Europe in one guidebook is impossible)
- slightly neglects the bus option, and more focused on trains.
- black-and-white pages only (not a problem to me).

Overall, value for money, and a good overview of Europe.

This book is great ! Lots of tips for the first timers... How to get the best deals, places to sleep, yummy places to eat and of course safety tips as well. It really did take some of the fear out of traveling abroad. I will be reading more of this one on my flight, cause I definitely didn't the chance to finish .
