This guide book series is our personal favourite here at World Flex Studies. Unfortunately it is only currently available for Chicago, Las Vegas, London, Miami, New Orleans, New York City, Paris, Prague, Rome, San Francisco, Shanghai, and Toronto.

Avant Guide

Always one of the best, you can never go wrong with a Lonely Planet guidebook.

Lonely Planet Shop

Also check out Lonely Planet’s ‘Thorn Tree Forum’ for some interesting travel blogs.

For you party types we also highly recommend Frommer’s Hanging out in Europe (although Frommer’s recently stopped publishing this book you can find many copies available on Amazon).This is a new breed of MTV-generation travel guide. This complete guide covers Europe's 50 hottest party towns and resorts, highlighting everything from: the club and music scene, the best bars, hanging out, retro shopping, adrenaline sports, cheap eats and sleeps, the gay and lesbian scene, a fresh take on all the cultural sights, and more! The guide covers Vienna, Reykjavik, Paris, Berlin, Nice, Prague, Ibiza, the Greek Islands, Dublin, Edinburgh, Barcelona, and much more, all with dozens of maps and black-and-white photos.
