5.0 out of 5 stars Best guide for travellers, probably not best for culture, 16 Sep 2003

By	Mark (Manchester, UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Morocco (Lonely Planet Travel Guides) (Paperback)

I used this guide while travelling round Morocco in April 2003, and it was indispensible. As usual with LP guides, their strength lies in detailing the essentials - where to go, how to get there, where to find a bed for the night etc. In these areas it's excellent, and saved me quite a few times from paying too much or seeing too little. It's *not* so strong on the history and cultural details of places (something i personally think rough guides are much better at), so if you're not moving around much and want detailed histories of places, this probably isn't for you. If however you need to move around and 'live' in the country for more than a few days, you won't be disappointed. I met several people in Morocco who were using the RG instead, and found the maps and other essentials to be far inferior to my LP, which is now battered!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not for the budget traveller, 19 Oct 2008

By	Johnny Gringo "Jon" (UK) - See all my reviews

If you're looking for a budget orientated guidebook then this isn't it. A quick peak at the budget accomodation section of any place reveals only one or two truly budget options before prices rise exponentially and quickly threaten to overwhelm the midrange section. A typical example will be a hotel/hostel for 60Dh alongside one for 200Dh - an unlikely budget range except for those who have been in the sun too long or those who have over-indulged in their ilicit booze stash.

Having used guidebooks almost continually for the past year the number of map related mistakes in this guidebook is above average. Considering how much time you spend navigating confusing Medinas searching for a hotel, this is the one area where you want your guidebook to be accurate.

And finally, is it just me or is the cultural introduction incredibly annoying? The history section is much better written and easily absorbed despite the complexities.

4.0 out of 5 stars Derisions of grandeur, 9 Jun 2005

By	"dbcox2" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Morocco (Lonely Planet Travel Guides) (Paperback)

The LP guide has proven to be more thoroughly insightful than the Rough Guide although as Mark from Manchester states provides less information on the historical nd anthropoligical details. One major criticism of this guide however is that it can be extremely well covered with respect to accommodation in one two (Essouira) and then have barely enough on another; also the price guide offered by the guide actually implies indirecely that the accommodation will be in this price range where in fact the cheaper accomodation is much cheaper than that advertised. Some of the writing can be so close to stereotypical or cliched expression e.g. "Just the name Morocco evokes..." can be at best humerous and at worst off putting and misleading. I do prefer the previous edition to this one although it is on the whole acceptable more so for all the practicalities like accommodation but the maps are not so practical as you would expect from LP; it is advisable to purcahse seperate maps and for those who want to learn more about the country to check their 'further reading' section and read up on current travel writing to get a 'proper' feel for the country in general.
