Editorial Reviews: Our London guide covers the most celebrated landmarks as well as the more intimate sites. The Tower, Windsor Castle, Hampton Court, Westminster Abbey and Kensington Palace are just a few of the many highlights. You'll follow the historic trails of the Tudor dynasty and discover fascinating facts about the lives of Henry VIII, Anne Boleyn, Bloody Mary and Queen Elizabeth I. We loved Princess Diana and include many sights that were meaningful in her life, as well as her memorials. Our fabulous Beatle tour will take you Here, There and Everywhere. You can follow the clues of the Da Vinci Code and race through the streets like Sophie and Langdon. Our insider tips focus on eateries; shopping, the theatre, safety and traveling around London. Our suggested booklist will give you insight into the history and culture of London. Philippa Gregory, author of The Other Boleyn Girl, praises You Go Girl London, "A thorough and authoritative guide for the women traveler focusing on specialist trails through London: Tudor, Princess Diana, and the Beatles. The straightforward style and enthusiasm of the authors would encourage any traveler, and some of the tips for enjoying the best of London's great tourist sites are invaluable."
Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: You Go Girl London: A Travel Guide Just for the Girls Comment: A great book, particularly if you're wanting to travel London on a budget. I found the suggestions of movies to see and books to read before travelling there to be insightful, (something other travel guides don't seem to touch.) Customer Rating: Summary: Just OK Comment: Honestly not a great book to take with you on the trip. It is a good primer before you go-what to see, but you still need another book for your travels. There are no maps in this book-so it is difficult to plan out your travels-and you may be right near another shopping possiblity and not even know it. I did buy this book and Eye Witness Top 10 Travel Guide to London and found after a day or two this was the only book I left for the day with-it has all of the same information, plus maps of the city. Also a smaller book that fits in a back pocket. Customer Rating: Summary: Tally Ho!! Wonderful book. Comment: Planning a trip to London with my daughters--this book is extremely helpful. The authors, who are traveling sisters, are very knowledgable and eager to share their expertise. Wonderful tips on what to see and how to save money while there, as well as how to save time and money when booking your trip. Also included is a brief overview of Tudor history. I definately recommend this girl friendly book. Customer Rating: Summary: Not Just a London vacation but a London Experience Awaits!!! Comment: I received this book for Christmas from a friend who thinks I should do a bit more traveling!! You Go Girl London makes me want to jump on a plane and head across the pond. These "girls" and their personal accounts makes me realize I really could go on a Girls Only trip to Europe and do it on a reasonable budget. I especially liked the historical aspects and the suggested books to read prior to going to London. Following this guide will give the traveler the opportunity to not just visit London but EXPERIENCE London understanding the history of what you are seeing. It will be fun to carry this guide with me as I travel and site see. Let's go girlfriends!! I just looked up their website; www.yougogirltravelguides.com and saw that the next book "You Go Girl Paris" is in the works. I better get busy making plans for London as the next guide to visit Paris will most likely excite me to make more travel plans!! Thanks Ladies for the inspiration to GO!!! Customer Rating: Summary: CAN'T WAIT!! Comment: I just ordered this book, and these girls really know their stuffL!!! I'm excited to travel London with the advice of girls who have been there and done that!! More Reviews
