Review: Best travel books - Good overview on Sri Lanka. Review: Not upto the mark. - Not as good as other Lonely planet guides we had used during our earlier transportation. Details on how to use different modes of transportation like train, buses etc between cities that too people with luggage is not at all explained. I think the writers of this lonely planet expect us take car & driver between places but we are the people who uses public transports. In other guide books we had used earlier like Turkish, Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia to name a few, explains this aspect very well.

スリランカに行くなら!
本書のおかげで、バワ建築を効率的に回れた。レストランの選び方も、信頼できる。とくにコロンボのレストラン、グリーンキャビンは秀逸でした。

Finding the right guide book for my daughter was tricky ...
Finding the right guide book for my daughter was tricky. I needed one that gave the sort of advice that was really practical yet did not stint on descriptions of the key areas. The Lonely Planet guides give all the essential details for anyone who is looking to travel away from the tour groups. I was so impressed that they dealt with issues relating to the availability of personal hygiene products, keeping safe as well as details on the cultural and tourist high spots. A must for the confirmed traveller.

Indispensabile come sempre
Sempre una certezza per i viaggi rispetto ad altre dedicate a destinazioni diverse il contenuto me è parso un po' più "pompato" ma utilissima come sempre
