Book Reviews of Baedeker's South Africa (Baedeker's Travel Guides)
Book Review: Don't go to SA without this book
Summary: 4 Stars
We bought 5 books when we went to SA ,and the book that we kept referring to is this Baedeker's guide. The map that came with the book was especially useful, because it included routes that were not shown on the bigger SA road map we had brought with us. We would have been lost without this map on the Garden Route. This Baedeker's guide is separated into major sights by alphabetical order. Under each sight(name of which is printed on the upper right hand side of each page) are major landmarks or information about the sight so referencing is really quick and easy. These references helped us decide what to see once we arrived there.I also loved the Baedeker Special articles that are interapersed within the landmark section. These articles provide highly interesting history and information from the occupation of Capetown to sharks in South Africa. The size of the book is also an advantage, at 4"X 7", it would easily fit into a woman's handbag. If you want lots of big glossy exciting pictures of South Africa this is definitely not the book to get. The pictures contained in this book give you a taste of the country but do not do it justice. However, if you are going to travel to SA this is the book you must buy.
