Which guide?

Your email (optional, for a reply)

About you, a line each: age range; how many trips alone so far; where you normally start planning

(optional)

1. Where did you decide to stay, and what in the book made you choose it? What did you still have to look up elsewhere before booking?

(optional)

2. Pick two of the day plans. Could you follow each one as written? Note anything you needed that the book did not tell you: how to get there, how long it takes, whether to book, how tiring it is.

(optional)

3. Pick one restaurant or café from the book and imagine going alone. Did the entry give you enough to decide? Which entries felt like they were only "well reviewed" with nothing more?

(optional)

4. Was there a famous sight or experience you expected the book to have an opinion on (worth it, skip it, only if...) where it did not commit?

(optional)

5. Where in the book did you stop reading, skip ahead, or feel talked down to? Quote the line if you can.

(optional)

6. What question about this trip did the book never answer? Up to three.

(optional)

7. If you took the trip: which piece of advice proved most useful on the ground?

(optional)

8. If you took the trip: which piece was wrong, out of date, or misleading? Name the place and what you found.

(optional)

9. On the day you were most tired or least confident, what did the book give you, and what was missing?

(optional)

10. Did you use the book's page on this site for updates? Was it useful; if not, why not?

(optional)

11. Would you buy the next city in the series? What would make that a yes?

(optional)

12. In one sentence, who is this book for?
