Book Reviews of Japan (The National Geographic Traveler)
Book Review: Excellent guidebook!
Summary: 5 Stars
"Japan (The National Geographic Traveler)" is an above-average guidebook for those doing a tour of Japan, or for those who are interested in what Japan has to offer. Utilizing the National Geographic's excellent collection of photographs and information, they have assembled one of the most eye-popping and enticing guides to Japan that I have seen, and I have seen quite a few of them. The various regions of Japan are well-covered, with an emphasis on major locations, sights and activities. There is not much "off-the-beaten" path type of information, but that is not what this kind of guide is for. The locations that are covered are covered very well, with both information, best times to visit and so one. Wisely, there is little in the way of pricing information, as this is quickly outdated. The experience of National Geographic is well-leveraged, giving a more informed picture over the "Eyewitness" guides.
I recommend this guide to anyone who is interested in or considering a trip to Japan, but is somewhat unfamiliar with the country and what it has to offer. There is plenty here to pique your interest.
