 Lots of Useful Tips July 19, 2008
Very good for 1st time travellers such as myself with loads of tips from experienced travellers. It is understandably generic in lots of places as it can't cover everything, it would be the size of a house, but if used in conjunction with more specific country guides, I'm sure it will provide the answers you are seeking.
 Very vague, good for 1st time travelers only. September 2, 2007

I bought this book for my upcoming trip around the world, although I have done some traveling, I needed advice on round the world specifically.
This book is really vague, although it has some good general country information, the travel prices are very general and it has no specific info on flights, tickets etc. It doesn't contain enough information to actaully book and plan your trip.
It's much more suited for those who have never traveled before. If you've strapped on a backpack don't bother! I found other guides far more informative with solid up to date info in such as gap year guides - lonely planet and gap year.com.

I found this book realy useful for planning my first round the world trip. Easy to read, to the point and good practical advice. Brief sections on all important issues to get you started such as health, visas what to pack etc. The best introductory book for backpackers that I have read so far

Firstly this book is firmly aimed at those who are travlling on a limited budget. If your planning on touring the world staying in hotels and resorts and not having to worry about the pennies then this really isn't for you. However if you have got a limited budget and plan to head of the beaten track then get yourself a copy now.
In clear well organised sections it will help you choose your pack, organise your finances, travel safely, what to take and a host of other usefull advice. Not just that but its a fun read too. The Author used his own experiences to develope his points but always remends you that it's your journey and you need to make your own decisions.
This book is not a guide to the world itself altough there is a region section included. It's all about preparing for your journey and starting out equiped with the things you need to know.
