Whilst this book provided really thorough guides of road trips around Europe, I was really disappointed by the lack of countries it offered. The book has multiple routes in the UK, France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, but I would have liked some from the Scandanavian countries, including Iceland and Norway, and those East of Italy, including Croatia and Greece.

Good guide to give you an idea of what you are looking to do and timeline for it. Loved the variety within the book and gave us great ideas for future vacations.
