Just returned from touring southern Ireland and I found the Lonely Planet guide priceless as it gives great detail for all the attractions in Ireland. I would have missed a number of must see attractions without this book! Another guide which was much dearer (and shall remain nameless)was very poor in comparison.

Books : Portugal (Lonely Planet Country Guide)
I usually avoid The Lonely Planet guidebooks as I find them getting more & more commercialised as less 'off the beaten track'. Therefore when I used the guide to Portugal I was thrilled at it's content, maps, recommendations & overall informative value. I have since lent this to friends who also have had nothing but praise for it's merit - well done!

Books : South America on a Shoestring (Lonely Planet Shoestring Guides)
Whilst travelling through Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, Paragruay and Brazil, I quickly realised that this book was not going to be much help 'in the field'. It is in urgent need of up dating; many of the hostels and hotels mentioned have either closed, renamed or vanished off the face of the earth. I used this guide to plan my trip, but upon arrival it did little more than fill up space in my rucksack. The maps are quite useful...to a point. Most of the restaurants, hostels etc are not in the right place on the map (which i found out to my cost when lugging my rucksack around Ascunsion). However, the layout is accurate and helps to orientate yourself around cities.

Disappointing when compared to the Lonely Planet Guide to Bolivia where I have also lived (that guide was excellent and warrants 5*). Has all the main tourist attractions but misses out on some of the smaller places which are essential for anyone here for a longer time and looking for places to visit outside Lima which you can get to in a weekend. That said, I haven't read all the other guides so others may be similiar in content.
