Frommer's Greece 06 April, 2008 I found this latest guide to be just what I was looking for. This covered all the areas of interest to me and gave specific info as to accomodations, travel time, and helpful hints. It has enough glossy photos and the layout was easy to follow. A good purchase!

Get The Lonely Planet 13 May, 2008 Took the Lonely Planet (published in 2006) and Frommer's (published in 2008) to Greece. The somewhat out-dated LP is so much better than the Frommer's and we used LP almost exclusively after the first 3 days. The Frommer's maps are frustrating and misleading. There is no (bus) directions for day trips out of Athens so you must either drive or join a tour. The information (history, background, etc) is fine but you can find similar information on the LP too.

Great Little Guide 24 December, 2008 My son and his fiance are going to Greece for their honeymoon so I thought I would get them a guide to study before booking. They found it easy to review and very helpful.

Very Detailed And Up To Date 20 December, 2008 This guide is quite complete and could be helpful not only to foreigners planning trips to Greece, but also Greeks who would like to travel around their country. I am Greek myself and I found this book quite informational.
It is very detailed, and prices, descriptions and current state of places seem very up to date.
If you like guides with pretty pictures, this is not for you as there are barely any. But there is detailed information on everything that you would need to know during a trip: where to stay, where to eat, what to see, with tips and prices for all budgets. It is really a great resource for organizing your vacation.
There are of course places and islands not included in the book, but there is a quite large and representational selection of locations across the map that will not leave you unsatisfied.
I will almost certainly buy the book again, as I gave away my first copy, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to visit Greece.
