This review is from: Guatemala and Belize: The Rough Guide, Second Edition (Rough Guide Guatemala and Belize) (Paperback)

The Rough Guides are really wonderful reference books for travelers, especially those on a budget. I appreciated not only the recommendations for lodging and restaurants, but also the cultural and historical content of the Rough Guide to Belize and Guatemala. This book contains very practical advice and budget-minded tips. The maps (especially street maps) are also of very high quality and easily readable. I have since purchased numerous other Rough Guides, but this one was the first I bought. It made a fantastic trip even more enjoyable.
