Lonely Planet Greek Phrasebook: With Two-Way Dictionary (Phrasebooks)

Summary: Not bad -- if you never use the toilet
Review: Great book except that it lacks the most important phrase to learn when travelling abroad -- "Where's the toilet?" So before you go to Greece and get yourself in an uncomfortable situation, I suggest you scribble the following into the inside cover of your phrasebook: "Pu e toualeta?" You can thank me later. Another problem I found was the dictionary in the back, which lacks some essential travel words like "ticket". Not nearly as good as Lonely Planet's other phrasebooks.

Summary: Modern, Updated and Amusing Phrasebook
Review: I am Greek-American and can speak both English and Greek. I bought this book for my amusement and was surprised that the book, unlike other phrase books, is a bit more modern as to phrase choice and very well-organized. I would suggest purchasing it, yet, keep in mind that in Greece most touristy places speak Greek and most Greeks under 35 know English in some form (as do other parts of Europe). Enjoy.
