Frommer's France (Complete Guides)

by Anna E. Brooke, Lily Heise, Tristan Rutherford, Kathryn Tomasetti, Jane Anson, Mary Anne Evans, Mary Novakovich, Louise Simpson, Simon Willmore, Sophie Kevany

Take the guesswork out of vacation planning. Frommer’s hires only seasoned experts, journalists who live in France either full-time or part-time, which means their advice doesn’t have to be second-guessed. It’s savvy, dependable, and not based on one or two short trips to France, but on a lifetime of exploration. They offer a detail- and tip-rich commentary on France’s iconic sights, and will introduce you to restaurants, off-the-beaten-path attractions, and shops that few tourists know to visit. So whether you’re going to be castle-hopping in the Loire Valley, skiing the French Alps, lounging on the sands of the French Riviera, tippling at Bordeaux wineries, or taking Paris by storm, this book is for you. Vive La France!

*Dozens of stunning, full-color photos throughout

Frommer's England and Scotland

by Jason Cochran, Donald Strachan, Stephen Brewer, Simon Willmore, Deborah Collcutt, Katie Featherstone, Samantha Priestley

Frommer's books aren't written by committee, by A.I., or by travel writers who simply pop in briefly to a destination and then consider the job done. We use seasoned, locally-based journalists like Deborah Collcutt, Katie Featherstone, Samantha Priestley, Simon Willmore, and Donald Strachan, plus part-time residents like Jason Cochran and Stephen Brewer because they are all real experts. The seven of them spent months checking out all of England's and Scotland's best hotels, attractions, shops, wineries, and restaurants in person, so they could offer authoritative, candid reviews that will help you find the venues that suit your tastes and budget. In short, use this book and you'll be eating in the places most tourists don't know about, visiting top attractions at times when the crowds are at their thinnest, and patronizing the bars and clubs Brits and Scots hold dear.

Inside the guide:

• Full-color photos and helpful maps, including a detachable foldout map
• Detailed itineraries for planning your trip to suit your schedule and interests (and help you avoid lines and crowds)
• Candid reviews of the best restaurants, historic sights, museums, tours, shops, and experiences―and no-punches-pulled info on the ones not worth your time and money
• Accurate, up-to-date info on transportation, useful websites, telephone numbers, and more
• Compelling cultural information so that you'll better understand the history, cuisine, and traditions of both Britain and Scotland
• Budget-planning help with the lowdown on prices and ways to save money, whether you're traveling on a shoestring or in the lap of luxury
