Thomas Cook Hot Spot Guides

From £4.99

Publisher: Thomas Cook Publishing

The Thomas Cook Hot Spots guide series comprise a range of handy, pocket-sized guides covering a comprehensive range of international resorts and hot-weather destinations. Each of the guides in the series identifies the region’s nightlife, shopping, beaches and activities in a range of resorts, helping visitors decide what to do in a limited time. The guides are aimed at those planning resort-based holidays and cover an extensive range of islands and countries.

Thomas Cook’s Hot Spot Guides are arranged thematically and are designed to help readers plan their trip accordingly. An introductory section profiles the destination, with background information on the destination and the ‘best’ attractions to see. A Resorts section explores the range of possible options, with details of the nearest beaches, prices, locations and things to see and do. There is also a chapter dedicated to excursions away from the resort, with recommendations of principal attractions in the region.

A Lifestyle chapter details useful information on food and drink, shopping, activities for children, sports and activities and festivals and events. A Practical Information section provides extensive guidance on accommodation by region, getting there, the local Tourism Authority, entry formalities, money, climate, baggage allowances, airports, communications, customs, dress codes, customs, emergencies, getting around, health, safety and crime, media, opening hours, religion, smoking laws, time differences, tipping, toilets and travelers with disabilities.

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