    Stunned by its mediocrity

    I have don’t all of the 7 trips, but the ones that I do know already—over half—are stunningly superficial and mediocre. Save your money and just Google a destination. You’ll find more gems that way than through this book. Lonely Planet used to be a great source. Now, at least based on this book, it’s barely mediocre.
