I’m in the process of planning a 10-week journey through Europe and the whole process has been a little overwhelming. That’s why I’m so happy I found this book. It has alleviated so much of my stress and it has made the whole planning process enjoyable.This book covers pretty much everything you need to know about planning a trip to Europe — hostels, using the trains/rail passes, budget airlines, solo travel, itinerary tips, packing lists, rental apartments, travel strategies, eating on the cheap, and a lot more.The book is written for people wanting to travel on a budget so there is a lot of advice about saving money. But the advice isn’t exclusively focused on doing everything as cheaply as possible; it also talks about getting the maximum value for the money you spend (your time is more valuable than money).This book is great for budget-minded travelers in their 20s/30s but the advice is good for travelers of all ages. If you’ve already traveled to Europe a few times then you might already be familiar with a lot of the information in the book, but for new travelers the tips in this book will save you a lot of time and money. I highly recommend it.One final note: This book doesn’t contain information about specific destinations (i.e. it won’t tell you what to see/do/eat in London). It focuses on travel skills and planning advice. For destination specific advice I recommend looking at guidebooks like Lonely Planet or Rick Steves.
Part of a Gift to my granddaughter--she loved it ! Traveling in the fall!

One of these days I will make the trip. When I do, I shall be prepared. I suggest everyone interested in taking a trip to Europe pick up this book.
Impressive writing, have enjoyed reading even thought I may never go to Europe.
