5 out of 5 stars Aussie thumbs up   May 18, 2000
  87 out of 88 found this review helpful

As an Australian, I recommend this for its accuracy and good, straightforward coverage of the country. It is annoying to read inaccuracies and clangers about your own country, and it is pleasing to note that this guide avoids that.

I have written in very glowing terms also about the Sydney guide.

These are guidebooks I prefer to use in travelling my own country, which is a great recommendation.


3 out of 5 stars Great Pictures and Maps...but could be better.   February 29, 2000
With its wealth of maps, I will certainly take along the book during my travels. As a person going to Australia for the first time, I feel that the book could provide a larger listing of lodging recommendations. If you want a book with lots of pretty pictures of the land, then this is the book for you. But if you need a book to help you plan your vacation, look elsewhere.


5 out of 5 stars An Absolute Must Have!   December 23, 1999

Pictures, references to specific historical and some lesser known places, explicit detail on mannerisms and etiquette--this book is everything that you would want out of a travel guide. DK has always done a wonderful job with their books, but this one has truly outdone all others!


5 out of 5 stars Great Aussie Guide   December 13, 1999

In preparation for our trip to Australia, we checked 4 Australian travel books out of the library. After reading them, this is the one that we thought was worth owning (definitely). If you want lots of facts, brief history, maps and beautiful pictures, we recommend this guide.


5 out of 5 stars Fascinating presentation. Feels like you're actually there!   October 9, 1999

I've seen many travel books, but the Eyewitness Travel Guide is in a class by itself! The pictures, maps, and illustrations are so vivid they give you the impression you're actually visiting Australia. This is more than a reference book--it's entertainment.
