Includes great information on extra side trips and excusions and not-to-miss lists. Regions are separated and shown on the map, so you can familiarize yourself with where the region is in Scotland. Extra information on where to eat and stay also included.

Fairly decent travel guide that came in handy on my Holliday. Not a lot of detail in certain areas, but a good book overall for ideas you can supplement with internet research.

Las explicaciones son bastante buenas y con muchos datos curiosos y útiles. Las imágenes son completamente impresionantes. Esta guía formará parte de mi equipaje en mi próximo viaje a Escocia.
