The best guide book on Russia, 21 April 1999
By Eric Trachtenberg - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Russia, Ukraine and Belarus: Travel Survival Kit (Lonely Planet Travel Survival Kit) (Paperback)
I'm an American living in Russia and travel extensively here because of my job. Despite wild currency changes and other idiosyncracies of this country, this book is amazingly accurate almost all of the time. Although it is short on photos, it is long history and practical advice. Don't come here without it -- especially if you're an independent traveller.

This book has what you want without the fluff ......, 14 Feb 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Russia, Ukraine and Belarus: Travel Survival Kit (Lonely Planet Travel Survival Kit) (Paperback)
I live in Moscow. Not long ago I wanted to drive to Suzdal to see the churches and monasteries there. I borrowed this book from a friend and found it so helpful (open on the front seat of the car the whole trip) that I decided to buy it myself! It tells you where to go and how to get there. Provides addresses and phone numbers as well as operating hours where available. Bottom line is it's info you can actually use. This one is a must, whether you live here or are just visiting.

Very outdated and biased book, 2 Oct 2001
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Russia, Ukraine and Belarus: Travel Survival Kit (Lonely Planet Travel Survival Kit) (Paperback)
I'm glad this book is not sold anymore! When my mother-in-law (a NZer) read it and then came with us to visit Kiev, Lviv, Moscow and some small and mid-sized cities and towns, she said she read your book, but LUCKILY didn't find it to be true!!!I think the author of the book needs to visit Ukraine and Russia soonish and re-write the book, or get some treatment for..., racism, cold war and a shield from what the media brings to your TV screens (everyone knows that only bad news and breakthroughs make news), so please use your brains!
I read the book after my mother-in-law's remarks and was sick in my stomach, for quite a while.
Listmania!
