No Country for One Book May 19, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
While this is a perfectly adequate guide, should you travel to India, I would recommend also bringing along the Footprints Guide, which does a better job describing various monuments and historical places. I'll be heading to S India in a few months and plan to take this guide, Footprints AND Rough Guide (I tore the N India sections out of my older Rough Guide and Footprints as these are three hefty books). India is such a huge country that no one of these three guidebooks stand out as being the best. If I had to take just one, I'd probably go with Footprints, but their latest edition is a bit dated for proper hotel and restaurant recommendations. The LP is the most current of the three mentioned.
lonely plant India December 17, 2007
The book was informative. I was hope for a little more cultural and regional info and map content, but you can't have everything I suppose. The problem is how many books can you carry, especially this size? Do your homework before you go and then carry this book for hotel, transportation, and other info. I understand the rough guide to India is a good complimentary book. But you'll need another backpack to carry both.
 Reliable - as always. December 15, 2007
I like Lonely Planet Guides - having enhanced holidays in places from Myanmar to Maine using them. The LP India is particularly useful for independent travellers.
Trip to North India November 21, 2007
The book was quite helpful in most respects. I was disappointed with one of the eating suggestions, it was the worst meal we had in India. The book saved us in Shimla when we were planning to fly back to Delhi. There is a strict weight restriction on luggage which we had missed in our travel documents. We still flew back, just sent the luggage by an alternate means. The book is quite complete and was very useful in many ways.
Great! November 12, 2007

Right on time! Book in exact condition as described. Fortunately for me, the book gave me a critical piece of information that I needed a visa before I entered India that I had not realized I needed as a tourist.
