5.0 out of 5 stars A strong contender for the Lonely Planet / Rough Guide crown, 7 Dec 2008

By	Trout, Kilgore (West Country, UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Thailand (Footprint Handbooks) (Paperback)

Before a trip to a new country I get the Lonely Planet and Rough Guide out from the library to choose which I will buy. Generally, RG is slightly better for descriptions of places to visit, whilst LG has the slight edge for accommodation. I bought the LP for Thailand mainly because the latest edition was published in 2008 and the RG in 2006.
Since then I stumbled across the Footprint guide to Thailand and wish I had bought that instead.
It has even more accommodation places than LP, and has some additional, interesting, out-of-the-way, places to visit, not mentioned in the other guides. The many accommodation, restaurant and place reviews have a insightful, personal flavour. Above all it has the feel of being written by authors that live in the country and are conversant in its ways, rather than being produced after a whistle-stop fact-finding tour.
If other Footprint guides are as good as this, they will be top of my list for future trips.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good overview of the area, 15 Aug 2009

By	K. Sandler - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Thailand (Footprint Handbooks) (Paperback)

This is a good book if you want the whole of Thailand. However, it is somewhat out of date for some places. If you are looking at the islands, there is a book just for the islands.
