Useful little book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Auckland (Lonely Planet City Guide) (Paperback)
Like all Lonely Planet guides, this is most useful for back-packers. But with the usual list of the best places to eat and drink and a moderate mix of hotels, it provides the basic information for any traveller to Auckland.It's also small enough to fit handily into your jacket pocket, unlike its full sized brethren. Unfortunately, this version is from 2000 and the references to 'millenium events' makes the book dated. Some places mentioned aren't the same now. Maybe it's better to wait for the next edition, as long as Lonely Planet actually write it...

Perfect for regional use,
By amazonker - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Auckland (Lonely Planet City Guide) (Paperback)
The first thing I want to point out is that this book has many more (and better) maps of Auckland than the full Lonely Planet New Zealand, so in that sense it's a great book for someone who will be spending a while in the city. However, I think the ideal person to buy this book would be someone who is traveling around the south pacific and due to time constraints will only be hitting Auckland and the surrounding area. I met a lot of vacationers in Auckland who were doing just that. If that's you, pick up this book! It's a lot less weighty than the full LPNZ, and it covers everything from the Bay of Islands to Rotorua (and places in between like Whangarei and Hamilton) -- not just Auckland city. The only downside is that the prices are slightly out of date since it's a couple of years old. However, all the info other than prices about places to stay, things to do, etc. is still valid (I just visited July-August 2001, so I know).
