Lonely Planet Eastern Europe

Make like 'King' Wenceslas and look out from Prague Castle then ponder your own matamorphasis at the Franz Kafka Museum. Go gently on the world's longest-and slowest-trolleybus route from Simferopol to Yalta. Get naked, hot, sweaty, and whipped with birch twigs with the locals in a Moscow banya. Plunge into startlingly clear seas from Albena to Zadar. Thirteen authors, over 38 years combined experience living in Eastern Europe, 4732 hours of on-the-road research. Updated practical information on the entire region and the world's newest country: Montenegro. more

seems complete

Although still haven't field tested it on the road, it appears to hit the important elements of the journey--especially those off the main tourist trail. Good to see transportation details as well.

Nowhere near enough detail

While this book adequately covers the absolute major sights in Eastern Europe, if you're planning on going anywhere remotely other than the top five spots (Krakow, Prague, etc) LP Eastern Europe is pretty inadequate. With only about 7-8 pages to cover the entire nation of Montenegro, for...

Maps are good, info is medicore

In 2007, I was fortunate to visit nine of the countries covered by this book, and I used it in each new town. First off, the book prices are way underpriced. Not every hotel in those parts have websites, and relying on this book to give you a "rough idea" is a bad idea. Restaurant prices were...

World Traveler

The book is in excellent condition and has been most helpful in planning a trip to Prague, Krakow, and Budapest. Most of the suggested middle-range hotels had already booked which is a good indication that the guide book had good selections.

2007 Edition: Well Updated & Comprehensive!

Not all Lonely Planet guides are equal, but I found this one to be very good! It covers pretty much all the former socialist countries westwards from Russia, including the Baltic states, Central Europe, the Balkans, Ukraine, and even obscure, very rarely visited Belarus and Moldova.It already has...

Good on average, but lacking in some respects

The guide is up to LP's usual standard, which is good, with good information regarding the backgrounds of countries, cities and regions. Also, almost every town mentioned has maps and plenty of accomodation and restaurant suggestions. However, it is incomplete or simply incorrect in some areas:-...

good for planning but already outdated

The Lonely Planet Eastern Europe offers the tremendous amount of information that users of the lonely planet have come accustomed to. As always, the history parts are excellent and the maps are lousy.I used the parts about Croatia, Slovenia and Slovakia and found that although this book is good...
