Description
Find your own journey. Central Europe offers numerous opportunities for a journey where culture, urban life, and landscapes interact. With eight countries in a single guide, it is easier to evaluate alternative stages and find a route that suits your interests.
Experiences and content. The guide covers Austria, the Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Switzerland. Lonely Planet combines itineraries and maps with tips for experiences, dining, and planning. Use the overview to see how a shorter city break can be extended, or to choose fewer stops on a longer journey through the region.
Who is this book suitable for? This is suitable for those who wish to see several countries in context without starting with a separate book for each destination. It is particularly useful early in the planning phase, when both the direction of the journey and the number of stops are still open.
From inspiration to your own plan. Use the guide before departure to choose a few experiences you really want, and see them in the context of the rest of the trip. A trip with fewer stops can give you more time to get to know each place. Browse through it together with your travel companions, compare ideas, and find a balance between what you want to fit in and what you want time to experience.
A physical book is also nice to return to during the planning process. Bring it out when discussing the next stage, find an idea you had noted, and let the plan develop as you become more familiar with the possibilities.
