Product Review
Let's Go, the budget-minded guidebook series started by Harvard University students in 1960, returns to Europe for a year 2000 update. The guide starts off with basic European travel necessities: visa updates, how to score the cheapest airfares (couriers, charters, consolidators), the latest on the Euro, and whether or not you should invest in a Eurail Pass. Countries are listed alphabetically, with more prominent ones (Italy, France, England, Germany) getting the most space while smaller countries register just one page (Andorra, Malta). Not surprisingly, the best deals can be found in eastern Europe ($15 hostels in Estonia, $2 dinners in Slovakia). Each city lists the lowdown on the best hostels and inns, cheap eats, sights, entertainment, and day-trip options. The appendix is packed with practical information like basic phrases in numerous languages (including Dutch and Latvian), a glossary of common terms, and even Metro maps. Finally, if you need a little help planning your trip, check out the suggested itineraries. --Jill Fergus

Reader Reviews
Let's Go is the college student classic. Without a doubt, if you are looking simply to party Europe, this is your most helpful tool. But if you are looking to experience Europe, understand that Let's Go is the most popular European travel guide. Virtually EVERYONE has it. This fact does have its advantages: you will never be far from the American crowd. But the disadvantages are the same: the bars, the clubs, the hostels and resturants are all on the Let's Go circuit. In all, my recomendation is to buy the Lonely Planet guidebook that I found much more informative and better written. You can better avoid the American Party crowd when you feel like it, and when you want to partake in the happenings - don't worry they are easy to find. The other advantage of everyone having Let's Go would be that it can be found almost everywhere (hostel bookshelves, your roommate's backpack) and you will not have any trouble borrowing it for a while. Lonley Planet offers a slightly different perspective, and allows you to more fully enjoy your trip abroad.
