Aggregate customer ratings lean positive overall, with most ratings in the five-star category, but a smaller set of lower ratings shows that experiences are not uniformly favorable. Ratings alone do not identify what readers liked or disliked. For a guide to routes across five countries, buyers should consider whether its broad coverage and 2014 publication date fit their planning needs.
