Good general overview

This book provides a decent overview of the biggest cities and sites in Europe for the "family" traveller. It gives a nice description of these places, but not as much depth as I would have liked. For instance, only three cities in England were discussed (London, Manchester, and Brighton). It provides a nice, down to Earth, heads-up on what to expect and areas you might want to explore.If you're looking for cruisy places or sex clubs, this isn't the book you want. If you want touristy information from a gay perspective, then this is a good book to start planning your trip.

Complete guide for all travelers

Armed with Frommer's Gay Guide to Europe, my partner and I headed for Amsterdam and Rome last month. While he was a seasoned travaler, I was a first-time tourist. We found that the guide was invaluabe to both of us for different reasons. For him, a complete and informative guide to attractions he missed on other trips; for me a vital source of all kinds of new informatiom and advice. We are certain that the Guide enhanced our visit to Europe. It will be of great value to any kind of traveler.

The Most Comprehensive Gay Guide to Europe!

I'm the editor of this guide and would like to comment ... My goal for Frommer's Gay & Lesbian Europe was to produce a guide that covered all the aspects of a trip and tried to include info for all types of gay/lesbian travelers. Some readers want just the facts, some want a little elaboration, and some want a great deal of elaboration, so we include "length" in our reviews (but rarely, I believe, do we "ramble"). This is true in all our Frommer's guides. And as this is a gay guide, one of the things we sought to stress was a gay perspective on these cities and resorts. What else should a gay travel guide want to do? Every mainstream guide seems written from a "straight" perspective, so shouldn't a gay guide set out to provide another point of view? It was exactly because the "gay perspective" is ignored elsewhere that we decided to stress it in Frommer's Gay & Lesbian Europe.I think we did an admirable job with this guide and provided gay/lesbian readers with a valuable source. I hope to hear from other readers with their comments and suggestions. Thanks!
