Let's Go Germany 12th Edition

I have not used Let's Go in years but so far everything in here looks great! Sure wish I had more time in Germany to see more of the things they recommend but we'll just have to be selective.

I've used Let's Go books in the past and have always loved them. This one is no exception, but it's also the first one I've purchased for a European trip. If you are a student, or on a budget, it's perfect. The weakness - it ONLY reviews budget and hostel lodging options. Also, it assumes you are only hiking or taking trains. However, we're planning on spending part of our time driving and exploring some of the smaller out of the way towns and staying some nights in non-budget locations, so I'm also ordering some other guide books to complement this one.

I just got back from a summer trip to Germany and Let's Go was my constant companion. My Let's Go guide survived violent almost-deadly storms on Lake Constance, brave climbs straight up the cliffs of the Rhineland, and not just one glass of fabulous German wine spilled on its pages. The Southwest Germany section is especially intriguing and rich in wilderness adventures (but watch out for those nettles!). A definite "thumbpick" for this book! :-P
