4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent guide, 18 Feb 2005
By A. de Fleury "markdefleury" (Bath, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As usual with Lonely Planet the layout and presentation of the book was excellent. It certainly gives you a great template to to plan your travels and the descriptions of hotels and B&B's were always spot on. The only problem was was that a lot of the prices were already outdate even though the book was published in Spetember and I went in November 2004. There is also a little bit of a Lonely Planet trail. Sometimes its worth taking a turning not mentioned in the book and finding a beach etc with no other backpackers. However, its difficult to see how any book could do full justice to New Zealand!

5.0 out of 5 stars Industry standard, 15 Jul 2006
By Spider Monkey (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
This book, as expected from lonely planet, is superb. My girlfriend and I travelled around NZ for five weeks with no other guide book in our bag, nor did we need any other. The information is easy to access, clear and truly excellent. Prices change, but the things to see and the great restaurants to visit etc do not. NZ is so breathtaking to travel around and this book will help you to get the best from it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not up to LP's usual standard, 20 Jan 2007
By Robin Fellgett (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The previous editions (see other reviews) may have been great, but the new Sept 2006 version is a real disappointment. Just used it for 3 weeks in NZ. For years I have used Lonely Planets. They give you information. Something has gone wrong with this NZ one. Far too much is the worst sort of travel writers' gush. Far too little is the sort of info LP are otherwise justly famous for. A real shame - lets hope LP are going to quickly revise and re-write it. Meanwhile, I'd suggest checking out the alternatives.

Lonely Planet is in general known for not updating their books much and the kiwi version is tragic.
