Title: For the independent traveler?
Review: I just spent a month in Athens. I had picked this book as my primary guide, based on the advertised bent toward the "independent traveler" and an unfortunately cursory look. After a week in Athens, I bit the bullet and went into a local bookstore to pick up The Lonely Planet for Greece. Sigh.A few comments:1) The maps are not good. The map for Athens is terrible.2) If you want information on bars and nightlife, I guess this is your book. If you want information on what you REALLY need to do to catch a KTEL bus from Athens to Delphi, good luck. You'll need it. (Actually, good luck on getting that bus, too, but that's a different story.)3) Way too much cutesy filler and tourist-group bashing.In summary, if by "independent traveler," you mean "twenty something and drinking my way through Europe on mummy and daddy's money" then Let's Go Greece is for you!
