The series caters to highlights-based travelers on vacation and covers Australia, Europe, France, Great Britain, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Germany, Greece, and (publishing in November) Egypt. Each book includes the 25 top experiences in the region, some practical itineraries, and a section on planning.

Of particular note is the "In Focus" section, which discusses local travel, history, dance, artwork, architecture, food, drink, culture, customs, and religion. For example, in the Spain book, the section explains the passion and melancholy of flamenco dance and discusses the artistic tradition of master painters. The other volume covers Thailand's social conventions and etiquette, its highly valued emphasis on sanuk, having fun, and the influence of Hindu-Buddhist iconography on temple architecture.
