We’ve loved Lonely Planet guide books - for foreign countries and national parks in the US。 Some recollections of our trip to Germany:In planning, I said I wanted to go to Munich; my wife asked “why?” And I said “to have a beer”。 And I enjoyed the beers, Paulaner, Lowenbrau, Hacker-Schorr (where we ate dinner and when finishing up, our waitress asked if we wanted anything else; we said no thank you; she clapped her hands together loudly and declared we were ready for an after-dinner drink and br We’ve loved Lonely Planet guide books - for foreign countries and national parks in the US。 Some recollections of our trip to Germany:In planning, I said I wanted to go to Munich; my wife asked “why?” And I said “to have a beer”。 And I enjoyed the beers, Paulaner, Lowenbrau, Hacker-Schorr (where we ate dinner and when finishing up, our waitress asked if we wanted anything else; we said no thank you; she clapped her hands together loudly and declared we were ready for an after-dinner drink and brought us two cordials with a clear liquor- we never did find out exactly what - but I recall it tasted like cake icing)The LP book recommended against going to Hofbrau Haus, saying something along the lines of “if you want to see 600 Japanese tourists in white shirts with cameras around their necks, go here”。 We poked our heads in the door, saw a sea of picnic tables fairly packed with tourists and walked across the street to Augustiner where we had a table for two and a great time。At one point an elderly couple approached us on the street asking me for directions; I tried to explain to them that I was not German and didn’t speak the language well。 After they moved on, I scratched my head and my wife said look around, you look like everyone here; you could be at a family reunion (the show would be in the other foot when we made our trip to Ireland。 War Memorial 。。。more

Very helpful for Frankfurt。 Didn't have any information on Mülheim, the thriving university town near the Dutch border with lots of interesting attractions where we stayed for four days。 Very helpful for Frankfurt。 Didn't have any information on Mülheim, the thriving university town near the Dutch border with lots of interesting attractions where we stayed for four days。 。。。more

Always love the Lonely Planet books。

Continuing in my slightly odd reading of Germany guidebooks, I found Lonely Planet's niche travelers: younger people who want to party and anyone who just wants to leisurely wander Germany。 Lonely Planet includes many more small towns than did Michelin and many more lodgings, restaurants and clubs。 It made me want to take a year off and just wander the many byways in Germany。 Lonely Planet tells you that much of what you're looking at is reconstructions since World War II。 It makes clear just ho Continuing in my slightly odd reading of Germany guidebooks, I found Lonely Planet's niche travelers: younger people who want to party and anyone who just wants to leisurely wander Germany。 Lonely Planet includes many more small towns than did Michelin and many more lodgings, restaurants and clubs。 It made me want to take a year off and just wander the many byways in Germany。 Lonely Planet tells you that much of what you're looking at is reconstructions since World War II。 It makes clear just how devastating the destruction wrecked by the Allies was to both people and places。The guide is good on transit alternatives and in listing places you probably just shouldn't travel without wheels。 。。。more

This book was instrumental in organizing and planning my trip to Germany, which included Berlin, Cologne, several stops along the "Romantic Rhine", and Frankfurt。 While not every attraction and restaurant is still open two years on, this was a great guide to maximizing our time in Germany。 This book was instrumental in organizing and planning my trip to Germany, which included Berlin, Cologne, several stops along the "Romantic Rhine", and Frankfurt。 While not every attraction and restaurant is still open two years on, this was a great guide to maximizing our time in Germany。 。。。more

I will be travelling to Berlin for a short weekend trip to attend a wedding this year so I decided to pick up Lonely Planet Germany to see if we could do a day trip to near by places and good lord this book has opened my eyes to Germany。 There are so many beautiful places。 Brilliant guide yet again。 I will be purchasing Lonely Guide Pocket Berlin to accompany me。

In September of this year I head for Europe。 The first port of call will be Hamburg and so it is appropriate that I finally get my hands on this volume of the LP guides。 Unfortunately it does not cover the only small town I'm likely to visit, but nearby Schleswig (in Schleswig-Holstein on the border with Denmark) is listed and may be the better choice for accommodation。 The German section of my trip is to find family haunts。 As with all LP guides this is easy to read and informative。 My only res In September of this year I head for Europe。 The first port of call will be Hamburg and so it is appropriate that I finally get my hands on this volume of the LP guides。 Unfortunately it does not cover the only small town I'm likely to visit, but nearby Schleswig (in Schleswig-Holstein on the border with Denmark) is listed and may be the better choice for accommodation。 The German section of my trip is to find family haunts。 As with all LP guides this is easy to read and informative。 My only reservation is not to rely on the guides acommodation listings 100%。 Everyone who buys this guide will probably try and stay at these places so they're often booked out。 I found this out the hard way in Spain。 But that's another story。 。。。more

Great book; helpful, interesting and informative。 The only problem is that now I want to go on a vacation I can't afford。 :) Great book; helpful, interesting and informative。 The only problem is that now I want to go on a vacation I can't afford。 :) 。。。more

Always recommend lonely planet travel books!

Quite good as usual with LP。 It's a big book though, if you only plan to visit some part of Germany, I think regional or city book would be more appropriate, and may give more details on smaller but still nice places。 The historic and cultural section at the end of the book is really great, and worth a read during a train trip :) Prices rises quickly it seems, and there is a lot of construction going on in Hamburg and Berlin, so these cities are changing quite fast ! Even Cologne is actually bui Quite good as usual with LP。 It's a big book though, if you only plan to visit some part of Germany, I think regional or city book would be more appropriate, and may give more details on smaller but still nice places。 The historic and cultural section at the end of the book is really great, and worth a read during a train trip :) Prices rises quickly it seems, and there is a lot of construction going on in Hamburg and Berlin, so these cities are changing quite fast ! Even Cologne is actually building a new museum and a new waterfront, so I guess better look for the latest edition。 。。。more

I only read the Berlin, Munich, and Dresden-specific parts, as well as the general information and history section。 Very useful in planning out my trip and figuring out how much time I needed in each area。

I had a different Lonely Planet edition of Germany, and only looked at a small part of it。

It's an ideal book if you plan to travel around Germany by yourself。 The 1st chapter gives you an overview of GErmany。 Subsequent chapters will go into the different states in Germany。 There are many detailed walking tour plans for different states in Germany。 Dining places mentioned in LP are definitely worth trying。 It's an ideal book if you plan to travel around Germany by yourself。 The 1st chapter gives you an overview of GErmany。 Subsequent chapters will go into the different states in Germany。 There are many detailed walking tour plans for different states in Germany。 Dining places mentioned in LP are definitely worth trying。 。。。more
