Two fine new travel guides use the popular 'Eyewitness' approach DK fostered in its children's books to provide adult travelers with clear, eye-catching and fun guides. AUSTRALIA packs in the color photos, maps and illustrations and not only covers the usual places to go and stay, but adds tips on local foods, cutaways and floor plans of all major sights, town listings of sights and beaches, timelines of festivals and special events, and more.

I really enjoy this series of travel books. Always guaranteed a clear concise and very illustrated description of the subject matter and this book is delightfully no different.
I'm travelling to Australia next month and this was my first purchase, to accompany me in my travels. An excellent book of high quality and invaluable when discovering new places.
Thanks again to DK Publishing.

The actual weight of this book is too much for lightweight travellers. Great photos and descriptions but will read, make notes and leave this book at home. Another book selection for actual travel will probably be Fodors.

This is a good looking book but disappointed us, somehow there wasn't a lot of useful information in it compared to other guide books! We sold it when we got back.

I was letdown after all the good reviews this book received.The layout is good, it is easy to read and there is a lot of useful information in the book. The letdown for me was that all the restaurants and bars listed are expensive so this isn't very helpful for the budget conscious. BUT this book is way better that the Rough Guides or Lonely Planet. However I will be ordering Frommers to take with me when I go to Australia...
