Only for the teenager, 3 Jan 2006

By	"calliach1" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Buenos Aires (Lonely Planet City Guides) (Paperback)

This book aims to give a view of Buenos Aires which really sells it short. Focussing only on the frantic, hectic, all night long, young, super cool, flashy and utterly shallow aspects of the city. If you're very young and you only travel so you can always feel like you're in a disco in Ibiza, buy it. If you want some alternative insight into a fascinating, scruffy, historic, genteel, polite, beautiful and occasionally savage city, ignore most of its breathless attempts and try another one.

One of the best guide to BA, 14 Mar 2004

By A Customer

I used the guide while I was in Argentina. It was compact, informative, and up to date. What else do you need?

Good stuff, 26 Feb 2005

By	Simon C (London) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Buenos Aires (Lonely Planet City Map) (Map)

Laminated and doesn't fall appart if you spill something on it (or sweat on it, which is more likely in Buenos Aires). The short tour listed on the map isn't particularly good, but the selection of maps is very comprehensive.
