It is designed to be used in conjunction with Michelin Maps 501-504 and the Michelin Motoring Atlas of Great Britain, but the information contained in the Green Guide to Great Britain is indispensable. The book opens with a section titled simply 'Practical Information', which gives you tips on planning your trip, getting to Great Britain, motoring in Britain, places to stay, local services, shopping, currency, and recreation. Here, you will also find conversion tables for weight, clothing, speed, and temperature, as well as a calendar of events. Following the Practical Information section, the Introduction will do as it's name suggests and introduce you to Great Britain, including her economy, history, government, architecture, sculpture, painting, music, language, scientific progress, traditions, customs, and finally Great Britain's food and drink.

For every site that requires admission, there is a listing in the back of the Michelin Green Guide to Great Britain which gives dates and hours of operation as well as pricing. The guide also includes maps of major cities and parks, as well as photographs of many of the locations listed.
