Thomas Cook City Spot Guides

From £5.99

Publisher: Thomas Cook Publishing

The Thomas Cook City Spots guide series comprise a range of handy, pocket-sized guides covering a comprehensive range of international cities. Each of the guides in the series identifies the city’s most entertaining highlights and principal attractions, helping visitors decide what to do in a limited time. The guides are aimed at those planning city breaks and often cover unusual destinations that are not available from other publishers.

Thomas Cook’s City Spot Guides are arranged thematically and are practical designed to help readers use them easily on the move. An introductory section profiles the city, with background information on when to go, history, lifestyle and culture. A ‘Making the Most of…’ section explores the city, with individual sections on shopping, eating and drinking, entertainment and nightlife, sport and relaxation, accommodation, suggested itineraries, principal sites of interest and advice on arrival in the city.

Further sections detail the various regions and neighbourhoods of the city in addition to recommendations for the best out of town trips. A Practical Information section provides a directory of useful guidance, including information on getting there, entry requirements, money, health, safety and crime, opening hours, toilets, children, communication, electricity, travellers with disabilities, Tourist Information centres, background reading, emergency medical services, police and embassies and consulates.

Please note: Thomas Cook are currently in the process of re-publishing and replacing the City Spot series in a new format - “Pocket Guides’. Please see the Pocket Guides series for a list of titles that have already been published.
