In the second step, readers take their decisions from part one and receive all the practical and money-saving advice needed to book a vacation that makes the armchair voyage become a real one. Included is a complete list of what to pack. Go!... The third part of the guide contains tips on what to do-and what not to do-after arriving in the islands.
