1.India (Lonely Planet Travel Guides) by: Hugh Finlay August 01, 2003
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £12.68
and the best guide I've come across for India. Packed with detail and a reasonable cultural/ historical introduction. Maps are great, the timetables are pretty accurate, the opening times and prices are correct... There are some very bad LP guides out there. Vietnam springs to mind. But LP India has been consistently good throughout the years. I think I've used 4 versions of the guidebook and have been pleased with the improvements everytime. Obviously the negativities are that it is pretty big but how else are you supposed to cram in all that information.

2.Nepal: A Travel Survival Kit (Lonely Planet Travel Survival Kit) by: Tony Wheeler, Richard Everist, Richard Everest, Hugh Finlay December 31, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £1.67
As me and a friend are planning a round the world trip this series of books has been a great help. In picking places where to go it's helpful to know whats there! Were mainly backpacking and using hostels so specific country guides aimed at this was essential. We needed to know campsites, country entry requirements, cost of living, activities, etiquette, transport options, do's and don'ts and most importantly what the food was like! As well as info on touring in campervans, car or footslogging. The book has it all and more. It covers all such topics and then reviews each place in the country individually. It has topics on law, car rental and purchase, gay and lesbians interests and so much more. If your travelling to this country ... Read More:

3.East Africa (Lonely Planet Travel Guides) by: Geoff Crowther, Hugh Finlay June 01, 2003
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £0.86
This book was invaluable when travelling in East Africa. The layout is easy to understand and it has basic country history, language and local information, as well as information about East Africa in general. There is not as much detain in the single East Africa book as in each individual country book, and although this was in some ways irritating it was useful when making last minute travel plans. Guide books are not widely available in east Africa, but it was easy to change plans to suit our requirements with the book covering the whole area. I would recommend a more specialised book for exploring one country in more depth, or to accompany this one.

5.Delhi (Lonely Planet Regional Guides) by: Hugh Finlay September 01, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £3.00
This lonely planet is quite disappointing especially if you compare it to the usual lonely planet standard. Information is not structured in an easy to find way and important information is missing. After being in Delhi for 3 weeks, I have abandoned the lonely planet and mainly use other guidebooks.

6.Lonely Planet Jordan and Syria (3rd Ed) by: Damien Simonis, Hugh Finlay 1997-02
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £0.99
Some of the world's earliest civilizations thrived in what are now Jordan and Syria, and it is therefore not surprising that hundreds of historical and archaeological sites are to be found in the region. This book offers in-depth coverage of the main sites along with clearly written practical information on everything else travellers need to know about to help them make the most of their visit: historical, cultural, and political notes, a helpful language section, a detailed glossary, maps, photos, and accommodation and restaurant listings. Be sure to read the book before you go, and bring it along with you. An ideal complement to the above guidebook is Sonia Uvezian's fascinating and highly informative "Recipes and Remembrances ...

8.Jordan (Lonely Planet Travel Guides) by: Hugh Finlay March 31, 2000
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £0.14
Having just returned from Jordan this guide proved quite useful. It outlines all the main details of tourist attractions, hotels, restaurants etc. However it is very outdated. Since 2000 when it was written Jordan has developed alot. For example in Petra and Aqaba there are many new places to stay and eat and some of the ones recommended did not even exist anymore! Therefore it was not of much use for attaining information on those aspects. The maps of sites and detailed descriptions of momuments and how to get to them in Petra and Wadi Rum were very good and these are the books strengths. It is worth buying for those especially if exploring without a guide. The rest you'll have to work out when you arrive by yourselves!!

9.Lonely Planet : Morocco by: Geoff Crowther, Hugh Finlay January 31, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £0.01
I usually swear by Lonely Planet their books are usually concise and up to date and hardly ever misleading. They are also usually balanced in a way that every budget of traveller can use them. This book though failed on these counts. I felt that this book was not helpful to people travelling on lower budgets. Also I found this book aimed, as a male reader, towards women, this is not an out and out criticism, it is just a departure from the usual Lonely Planet style. Also I found basic information, like locations of ATMs, internet cafes, banks, bus stations and bus timetables, in more out of the way places incorrect. Also its recommendations of lower budget hotels had much to be desired. This book has made me reasses my trust in Lonely ... Read More:
