  This title marvels at the titanium wonder that is the Guggenheim museum and takes in its fascinating exhibits. It discovers the unique history behind the Basques, Europe's oldest people. It travels through stunning scenery of velvet green mountains, immaculate villages, vineyards and ancient holy places. It explores both the French and Spanish sides of the Basque country and the dramatic vistas of the Pyrenees. It visits vibrant Vittoria and lives it up in the glittering resort of Biarritz. It has a dynamic new two-colour layout for easy navigation. It has a new magazine style, combining stunning photography, tailored itineraries and a personal take on the country. It features clear, newly-designed two-colour maps throughout for increased ease of use. These are the only guides with full-colour touring maps of the whole region. There are extensive listings of hotels and restaurants - all personally recommended for a really local flavour.It also includes 'Top Don't Miss' sights for each regional chapter, plus 'Author Choices' of personal favourite places to stay and eat.
