Rough Guide

Rough Guide – For travelers looking to jump off the beaten path, Rough Guides should be your starting point. The guidebooks are written in a similar manner to Lonely Planet and are chock-full of information on attractions, where to stay, restaurants, transportation, and more — but with an even bigger emphasis on adventure. The Rough Guide books are also an excellent resource for responsible and sustainable travel, as each book has a section specifically dedicated to these causes.

Rough Guide has a book for almost every country in Europe, including lesser-visited destinations like Bulgaria, the Baltics, Serbia, Turkey, and so on. There are even specific themed books, such as pocket guides, Europe on a budget, audio phrasebooks, and more.
