4.0 out of 5 stars The Best - Roughly Speaking, 3 Oct 2003
By S. Cornforth "Steve Cornforth" (Liverpool, UK England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Rough guides are ideal for a certain kind of holiday. If you are planning to go to an all inclusive resort in Cancun and only venture out for arranged excursions then this book will never leave the shelf. Rough guides are for those who want to explore the real thing. That is why I won't visit any country without a copy.

This does not disappoint. The factual information is accurate and helpful. The restaurant recommendations were welcome - especially the wonderfully named 'Gory Tacos' in Downtown Cancun!

The information on archeological sites such as Coba and Chitchen Itza was extremely helpful, the travel tips essential.

The only slight reservation is that a bit of snobbery sometimes slips in. For example the resort of Akumel is dismissed as expensive and shallow. In fact it is beautiful and well worth the visit being quiet but accessible.

For all that this is still the best guide book for the thinking traveller!

4.0 out of 5 stars Informative and valuable for travelling in Mexico, 24 Mar 1999
By A Customer
I took this book backpacking in Mexico and found it to be a lifesaver. It gave detailed information and descriptions of towns, events, culture and history. The only problem was that some of the opening times of various places were sometimes slightly out, but that can't be helped.

1.0 out of 5 stars useful to sleep on but not to find places to sleep, 22 Nov 2004
By A Customer
Am in mexico right now, regretting buying this and not the new LP but it gives good info on the history of places, maps bear little resemblance to the towns they represent at times though. Not much good if on a budget as no price indications given for hotels. Out of date LP much better than this current version of RG Im afraid! But if you dont have a tight budget and can wing it on the maps it could be a nice guide.
