I have used many different guidebooks in my travels and have never come across a more basic, substance-less work. Is the author actually contributing to the growth of this country with his job in Xela...or just hanging around the country like the bum, pothead travelers in San Pedro. Take this guide off the shelves and promise us better in the future. No Stars.

Note that Jared Cullison is among those whom the author of the Moon Guide to Guatemala thanks for help with his book at the end of it. I honestly didn't see that either guide was all that impressive.
I have been a Lonely Planet fan for ages, but I am disappointed with this long awaited update. Keep in mind that my main interest is with Peten, so maybe the rest of it is okay, but I would not bet on it.
The author must have not been paying attention at Tikal or he would have ... Read More

I bought this book and Moon Guatemala (Moon Handbooks) (they came out at the same time) and decided to write reviews for both. Unlike the Moon guide, I found Lonely Planet's Guatemala guide extremely disappointing. I expected much more from a resident author.
Where do I begin? For starters, you'll see the tourist hordes in Guatemala sporting this book and the previous edition of LP all over the place. It's like standard issue for people who haven't the ability to discern quality or think ... Read More
