Uganda, 5th: The Bradt Travel Guide

Philip Briggs
Bradt Travel Guides, 2007
One of the best travel guides ever
I've traveled to over 40 countries in the past 15 years and read between 1-3 travel guides before going to each country. This is one of the best travel guides I've ever read. Very detailed, current, no superficiality. Strong on history, sights and culture. I really can't think of how this book could have been improved. And read Abyssinian Chronicles before you go to Uganda. Wonderful character ...

My compliments to Philip Briggs
Not only his Ethiopia guidebook is the best I have used in the last ten years (reliable, well informed, and so well written that reading it is a pleasure) but also Philip is very helpful and eager to solve any doubt or problem: he always replied immediatly and with great courtesy and competence to my many questions about Ethiopia. Highly recommended.

A great guide to Rwanda
The Bradt Guide is by far the most comprehensive guide to Rwanda that I was able to find. I don't know what I would have done on my trip without it. The book is a mix of background info and travel tips. One good thing to know is that Kigali has added a "5" in front of all the phone numbers since the guide was published.
Montenegro, 3rd (Bradt Travel Guide)
Annalisa Rellie
Bradt Travel Guides, 2008
The newest member of the UN, Montenegro has vastly improved its infrastructure and offers superb eco-, adventure and sports facilities. From natural history and mountain walks to seaside breaks and hidden monasteries, the guide covers every aspect of this often embattled republic. The author also provides comprehensive coverage to help plan and prepare, as well as updated information on hotels, restaurants and how to get around.

Excellent resource for "trainers"
I strongly recommend this guide for those who expect to take any substantial Aamtrak trip. We have taken a number of them and I throughly believe this is one of the best guides that is out. Not only does it provide information you can use as the trip progresses, but helps with distances so you can pick the right stop or what train to take while planning your trip. Some of the trains have ...

Excellent resource for an off-the-beaten-track location
It is unfortunate that so few guides to BiH exist, but thankfully the Bradt guide is excellent enough to stand on its own. I lived in BiH for two years, and every expat I know had a copy of this book to help organize travel in the region. The historical overview and explanations of important customs are wonderful additions that help give travelers an inside look into Bosnian culture. Given ...

This makes a great pre-trip read and trip companion
I'm heading to Kiev, southern Ukraine and the Crimea this fall. This book has been a great introduction to the history of the region; I'll definitely bring it with me on the trip!

Best Guide to Ghana
This book (I actually own the earlier edition) literally saved my life and made my trip to Ghana last summer life-changing. Phillip Briggs offers uniquely funny and truly insightful advice about not only how to get around in and get the most out of this amazing country, but he also thoroughly reviews all the best accommodation, sights, places to eat, and activities at every budget. A complete ...

A must read and take book for the Tanzania Safari-Goer
I recently returned from a Safari to Tanzania, mainly centered around animal and native peoples visiting. I found this book invaluable as a background read before the visit, and also during the visit.It is well written and covers the highlights in a very succint and informative manner. It is portable as well, and I referred to it many times during the two week trip. Afterwards I also used it ...

Bradt Travel Guides, 2008
Excellent informative book
I recently went on a medical mission trip to Nigeria. I bought this book to learn about the basics of the country, including culture, politics and religion. I found this to be a very well researched book with excellent information, presented in an easy to read fashion. Most notable, however, is the fact that this is the first book in its class. There are no other travel publications devoted ...
Zambia, 4th (Bradt Travel Guide Zambia)
Chris McIntyre
Bradt Travel Guides, 2008
Zambia is one of the best destinations in Africa for walking and river safaris, yet it is little explored by travellers. This fourth edition covers the prime attractions, including all national parks, from the lower Zambezi and Kafue to the famous Luangwa Park, host to several unique species and the top place for leopard-spotting. Advice for the independent traveler includes how to choose first-class bushcamps, lodges and/or hotels to organise ...

Best book on Iceland available
Andrew Evans clearly knows his stuff. His guide to Iceland is at the same time comprehensive and concise, encyclopedic and to-the-point. He provides both the intrepid backpacker and the urbane traveler with everything they'll need to know about how to get the most out of a visit to this exotic little island, without going broke, getting lost, freezing or getting scalded. His tips and insights ...

Detailed Guidebook
Having just returned from Botswana, I highly recommend this book. It is accurate with just the right amount of detail. Although the author owns his own travel company, his comments and reviews were accurate, thorough and objective as to safari experiences as well as other tour operators.

Excellent reference book on Azores
My wife and inlaws are natives of Pico, Azores and I purchased this book as reference material for a upcoming family trip to Pico. We all found valuable information in the book and my inlaws even learned a few things they didn't know about their homeland. Well worth the money. Strongly recommend buying the Azores road map too.

One of a kind!
This guide is one of very few devoted entirely to Malawi and the 4th edition was just published in 2006! With information about all types of travel (budget to 4 star hotel; safaris, overland trips, and rental car excursions) and a detailed chapter on the history and culture of Malawian people, this book will prepare anyone, first-timer to veteran, for an engaging, well-informed trip to the "warm ...

Great Guide for Touring Tallinn
It was out first trip to Tallinn so we needed to know everything. This little book provided the answers. We maximized our time in the city by reading about the recommended sights to see, how to get there, the costs, if any. Learning about the history of the city gave us an added appreciation of what we were viewing. We learned information about the language, the money exchange, the culture, ...
