Reader Reviews:
A great book for backpackers and parents (0/0 people found this helpful)
I bought an earlier edition of this book way back in 2000 before I went travelling and I am very pleased to see how successful it has been. My poor mum was very anxious about me going on my trip but reading this book put her mind at rest - worth getting for that reason alone!
Read this "Before you Go!" (2/2 people found this helpful)
This book is an absolutely brilliant guide on sorting out travel for your gap year or career gap. The author is well versed on his subject and it's written as if he's talking to you and telling you all you need to know. It goes into many different sections, from sorting out your visa to setting up an e-mail account to keep in contact with those back home. It also has some very amusing cartoons!!!
Indispensable Gap Year companion (5/6 people found this helpful)
Excellent guide to all thinking of taking a gap year or backpacking around foreign climates. Written by the gap year "guru" and seasoned traveller Tom Griffiths, this book gives the essential preparation tips to all with itchy feet (and reassurance to those left behind!!).
A book based on the experience of many travellers, Before You Go provides no-nonsense tips and a good dose of humour - essential reading.
For a first time traveller (9/9 people found this helpful)
A very good book, full of useful but general information. This books gives many invaluable tips on traveling including safty, traveling alone, meeting people, equipment, packing, parents, saving, do's and don't, etc... and also many of 'tom's tips' which would normally be overlooked by virgin travellers.
A book for travelers by travelers... Essential.
