“You won’t find a better guide to the most beautiful national parks in Europe, 460 to be exact!
The pictures are breathtaking and the visual descriptions having me want to book a flight tomorrow!” –Instagram: @books_with_bethany
 
“This book reminded me of how much world there still is to see and why you should make the effort to return to some locations. It made me realize that the next time I travel to France, I’m going to visit Vanoise National Park rather than immediately resorting to Paris or Nice. As always, National Geographic awakens even the most reluctant explorer to seek lesser-known areas and to enjoy the world for all of its beauty.” –The Wayfaring Voyager

Snowdonia especially piqued my interest because of my family’s Welsh ancestry.” –Jennifer – Tar Heel Reader
 
“The book is filled with amazing photographs and brief descriptions of the region.  Also, included are possible wildlife sightings as well as brief history tidbits.  I have my favorite dream places all mapped out.  I hope I get to visit some of them one day.
