Featured Book Reviews
“Have you ever wondered what a walking vacation in Europe would be like—but also wonder if you can pull it off on your own? Have you “been there, done that, I’m over it” with European travel packages that take you (and so many thousands of others) to insanely crowded destinations? Are you actively seeking the tools to plan your own European slow travel experience in the outdoors? Affirmative answers mean you need this full color, carefully detailed guide book. “Explore Europe on Foot” takes you by the hand now, so your feet can take you on a cultural hiking adventure later.” —Hiking For Her (Read the full review here)
“This book is … an alternative to rushing around with crowds of people, trying to see everything as quickly as possible before moving on. This is all about taking the time to savour the experience.
And Cassandra Overby is thorough: everything—and I mean everything—you ever wanted to know about planning a walking trip in Europe is here in this book …
There is something here for everyone, whether you want to travel in a group, with another person, or on your own; whether you are fit and prepared to walk long distances or want to do day trips. I won’t say buy this book if you are planning to hike through Europe—I would say buy it even if it is a distant dream. Overby will convince you and guide you into making that dream a reality. The book is also available as an e-book, so you can take it with you.” —Women on the Road (Read the full review here)
