5.0 out of 5 stars THE best book on Honduras for the ecotraveler!, 4 Jun 1999
By A Customer
For those venturing to discover the hidden secret of Honduras, this is the best guidebook you can have. It's not your ordinary where-to-eat-shop-stay book; rather, it caters to the ecotourist who comes to appreciate the sublime beauty of this lesser-traveled country. Honduras is a land of many treasures, few of which I've had the fortune to explore; but this book has inspired me to go back for more. From the helpful tips and sidebars to the excellent details about the wonder of Honduras, this book will lead you off the beaten path to discover this fabulous country on your own. Don't go to Honduras without it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very impressed, 5 Aug 1998
By A Customer
I was a Peace Corps volunteer at Celaque National Park, Honduras from 1994-1996. I traveled extensively throughout Honduras and hit most of the spots mentioned in the book. Your information is surprisingly very accurate. I've seen some guidebooks completely butcher the facts. I like the environmental tourism aspect you two have incorporated in your guidebook. That is a trend that should be followed.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book HAS to be the most indepth book about Honduras., 2 Aug 1998
By A Customer
KUDOS to Ron Mader and James Gollin for taking the time and effort to organize thier many years of travel savy experiences and research to put together the most outstanding Honduran travel guide that has ever been published. The book "Honduras: Adventures in Nature" is a MUST for anyone that has an interest in experiencing the unique and widely variable environments as well as its peoples and customs in this beautiful country. Ron & James cover EVERYTHING from the first people in this area to where the best place to get a refreshing chilled glass of tropical juice, all with a good sense of humor to lighten all of the informatively descriptive and educational material.

"Honduras: Adventures in Nature" does not just list areas of the country and the Bay Islands that holds special interests to the traveler but gives precise details of how to get to the many different sites, what is available at each point of interest (as well as the surrounding a! rea), park fees but also information that only well seasoned explores would know, such as suggestions on particular qualified guides, lodging and meals. An extensive list of government and non-governmental organizations also adorne this well rounded book with contact information. The information is so personalised and current that this book will have to be kept updated and from what I understand, this is excactly what is being done. If you are wanting to make an enjoyable venture into this diverse country but want all the homework done for you in advance, then "Honduras: Adventures in Nature" is the publication that has done the homework for you.
