5.0 out of 5 stars HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, 18 April 2001
By A Customer
Second edition of a highly-recommended guidebook to this fascinating corner of Mexico, a region which the authors describe as "a big hitch-hiking thumb." Their interest and hard work has paid off in both editions. The book is loaded with hotel and transportation info, great maps and interesting art work. Eco travelers will love this guidebook. The Conords provide full details on kayaking, hiking, rappelling, and camping in the region. They also feature more out-of-the-way attractions such as natural cenotes, ancient ruins and colonial towns. Of special note -- this is the first guidebook to feature a section on colonial era hacienda hotels , including both luxurious hotels and working haciendas where readers can experience authentic Yucatecan living in fine accommodations that are also economically priced. Indigenous artists in Maya villages are also profiled. As if all this weren't enough, the second edition includes a "Top 20" feature of things to do and see in the Yucatan. By far, this is the most comprehensive guidebook to the region.

5.0 out of 5 stars A guide for the Adventurous!, 2 Feb 2001
By A Customer
I am the author of the thriller/adventure 'A Tourist in the Yucatan' and I recently reviewed 'Adventures Guide to the Yucatan.' In my opinion, this is a 'must have' book for the adventure minded traveler! Bruce and June Conord have done an excellent job in putting together the ultimate adventure guide book to the Yucatan. For many travelers, a trip to the Yucatan means mostly sitting on the beach soaking in the sun. The typical tourist only sees a small fraction of what this fascinating section of Mexico has to offer. Inland are ancient Mayan ruins hidden in the jungle and colonial cities that date back to the 1500's. Available activities are diverse from scuba diving on tropical reefs or into cenotes or caves to kayaking, camping, or just getting off the beaten track and meeting the 'REAL PEOPLE.' This book does a great job of outlining all the possibilities available in a straight forward and easy to read style. The introduction section should be very helpful to the first time traveler and there are lots of maps to help you find your way.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Best guidebook to the area by far. Thorough & up-to-date", 23 Feb 2001
By A Customer
We've been travelers in Mexico for years and thought we knew it all. But the Conord's valuable book took us places we would have missed -- from a great little beachside seafood restaurant in glitzy Cancun to a small ancient Maya and colonial Spanish ruin well off the beaten track. What a pleasure it was to stay in a place we could watch shrimp fisherman, using lanterns in their boats at night -- twinkling lights bobbing up and down in the harbor.

We were never disappointed, the book is well organized and their hotel and restaurant reviews were spot on. With a sensitivity to culture, history, and ecology -- plus a very readable style -- this is the best guide to the Yucatan we've ever used.
