- An essential travel companion!
The Rough Guide to Brittany and Normandy beats all the others hands
down. We always go for Rough Guides, finding them to be the best
written travel books on the market, with a good balance of practical

This book comes highly recommended from our family.

Many times I have wandered into bars and restaurants in Normandy and (especially) Brittany, almost entirely upon the recommendations of locals, and had a fantastic time chatting and eating.

I feel I have to tell you all the above, simply to counteract what has been written in this book. The miserable ... Read More:

Awful book! Put my husband and myself off our trip, luckily other guides helped. Very negative, I am not at all convinced that this guy wanted to do this! Rough Guides are usually good, so I hope this is just a blip.
