World Travel Guide Online

With content provided by Columbus Press Limited and supported by AT&T and a variety of other corporate sponsors, the World Travel Guide aims to be "the most comprehensive and objective guide to the travellers' world." Users select a country from a world map or an alphabetical list, and are presented with an overview (including a relatively lengthy history) and links to specific information in the following areas: accommodations, addresses, business, climate, essentials (visas, etc.), resorts, social, and travel. The consistent organization from country to country is a help for the user interested in comparing destinations. The content is drawn from Columbus's printed materials, which results in a fairly serious limitation: the lack of links to further information available on the Internet. Many tourist boards, for example, have web sites that can give the traveler more detailed information. The exception to this rule is information for drivers, which is linked to a sponsoring car rental company's website. These limitations aside, the World Travel Guide should prove a useful resource.
