Format:Turtleback
Having recently traveled around North India, taking both this guide book and also the Rough guide to India, I found the rough guide far more useful. Whilst the DK guide has glossy pages and lots of colour pictures of the attractions, it is severely lacking in any real details. For example, if you are looking for information of things like buses or trains to travel round, where is good to eat, or with whom would be good to book up an activity and how much it should cost then this book is almost entirely useless. The only reason I would recommend this book to someone is if they were on a package tour, and were not responsible for paying for or arranging anything themselves. Stick to the less colourful rough guide or lonely planet books, which provide far more information.

I had been to India already, so I needed some illustrated details about what to see on a seoond visit. This DK book has all the quality of the others in the same series. It did the trick excellently, and it provided the main information basis for a good time of sight-seeing in Mumbai.

Having used the south africa guide previously i had high hopes of this book and it did not disappoint!!
The book is abundant with information and stunning pictures and is not only incredibly useful but also beautifully put together.
WHlst Lonely Planet is all facts and rather a slog to get through, DK is much easier to follow and read.
Overall a fabulous book!

Very useful for inspiration
Nice pictures and graphics for getting a feel for what to expect. Not really a guidebook to lug around in your backpack since it is quite heavy. Read more
