4.0 out of 5 stars Lonely Planet Guide to the Phlippines, 11 Jan 2004
This review is from: Philippines (Lonely Planet Travel Guides) (Paperback)
An excelent guide that I found both very informative and easy to use. There are plenty of maps and photographs to enable the reader to get a real feel for the place. I found this guide a very useful aid in the planning of my itinery for my visit to the Phil's, esp' the web addresses as these allowed me to find more information, maps and photos on the internet.
Excelent!

2.0 out of 5 stars Needs an update, 19 Sep 2004
This review is from: Philippines (Lonely Planet Travel Guides) (Paperback)
After several visits in the last year to the Philippines I have come to realise that this guidebook is seriously out of date. Mostly because this print is already an update of an earlier print. Especially with regards to Northern Luzon (information about Baguio), Mindoro (a.o. Puerto Galera and Roxas) and about transport from and to Metro Manila (due to frequent changes in busterminals). About other regions I can't give any statements because I have not been there. But based on what I have found out so far I'm first making use of the Internet and local contacts (through e-mail and telephone) before turning to this guidebook. Of course the book can be used for reference material.

4.0 out of 5 stars Would recommend, 26 Jun 2004
By O. Knight (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Philippines (Lonely Planet Travel Guides) (Paperback)
Found this book useful and informative. I've often found Lonely Planet to be quite out of date, but not on this occasion - price guides seemed quite accurate and didn't find anything that had disappeared. I've seen some other reviews (by Americans) criticising it for having an anti-US bias in the history sections - but I didn't agree with this. The Philippines has had a very difficult history and has suffered at the hands of other countries colonial interests - the US included - and I thought this was well explained. The general commentary is informal and I would recommend this guidebook for all generations.

1.0 out of 5 stars complete rubbish
Very disappointed with this supposedly updated edition. Hotel reviews were woefully inaccurate and have obviously been done without being visited - on my trip I came across the... Read more
