Not Great!,
By Tinkerbell (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Singapore (Lonely Planet City Guide) (Paperback)
In comparison to the other Lonely Planet guides I have hauled around In my backpack this certainly wasnt one of the best!I always trust Lonely Planet when travelling as they have so many great tips, cool places to go, fantastic maps and really useful information. However I think that the Singapore guide is pretty uninspiring, this edition is very outdated and seems very sparse. This book seems to only inform of the basics, there is nothing in here that you wouldnt find elsewhere which I think gears away from the Lonely Planet philosophy. Its pretty dull and drab and doesnt make Singapore appear to be the exciting, vibrant and colourful place that it is!!!!I found more information from leaflets, maps and magazines that I picked up whilst over there than what was in this book!It is out of date and dont buy this with the illusion that it is going to give you a selection of great places to visit, amazing tucked away restaurants and crazy markets, it just gives you the bare minimum!

Spot on for a short stay,
By A Customer
This review is from: Singapore (Lonely Planet Condensed Guides) (Paperback)
I bought 3 condensed guides including Singapore and they were all excellent. Just the right size to be able to carry with you and lots of useful information about what to do while in the city. We found the walking guides really useful and the guide helped us make the most of our limited time in Singapore.

colourful,
This review is from: Singapore (Lonely Planet Condensed Guides) (Paperback)
this guide is compact, and full of lots of colourful pictures maps etc. Which is always nice, and... it makes me want to read it! Good to slip in your pocket, without needing 6 months at the gym first too. ;-)
