Travel information about vacation/holiday in Miscellaneous » Guides
A guide book is a book for tourists or travelers that provides details about a geographic location, tourist destination, or itinerary. It is the written equivalent of a tour guide. It will usually include details, such as phone numbers, addresses, prices, and reviews of hotels and other lodgings, restaurants, and activities. Maps of varying detail are often included. Sometimes historical and cultural information is also provided. Different guide books may focus on different aspects of travel, from adventure travel to relaxation, or be aimed at travellers with larger or smaller travel budgets. Guidebooks can have factual problems, information may be out of date (especially for regions undergoing rapid development), the author may have a hidden agenda (for example free meals or rooms in exchange for inclusion in the book or a favorable review -- compare tout). Guide books are generally intended to be used in conjunction with actual travel, although simply enjoying a guide book with no intention of visiting may be referred to as "armchair tourism".

The capital of Bosnia Herzegovina is Sarajevo. The country is bordered by Croatia, Serbia, Montenegro. In addition Bosnia Herzegovina has 24 kilometer coastline on the Adriatic Sea. A well-known seaside resort with beach is Neum, a lot of sun, especially in many hotels along the coast with prices that are significantly lower than those in Croatia. Other cities with tourist attractions are Mostar, Banja Luka, Bihać, Brčko, Trebinje and Tuzla. The mountains in Bosnia-Herzegovina are almost always coverred with snow. Around Sarajevo are many winter sports facilities which were modernized in recent years (since the Winter Olympics of 1984).
