Wow!

My husband and I were getting ready to book a trip to Europe when we started looking for travel guides and stumbled on this book. We called one of the companies listed in the book and ended up paying... less than what we had planned to pay--and we stayed in really nice four star hotels and took the same itinerary. Now that we've almost finished the book, we feel like travel agents ourselves! It REALLY is an encylopedia for cheap travel.
