Many times it's difficult to include minute details while retaining the ability to quickly find information. This guidebook, like many other Lonely Planet books, manages to make researching a trip very easy. Included are such details as available hotels and restaurant in each city. You can also find great itinerary planners if you have no clue about where to start. With the suggested itineraries and the details about each city it's easy to plan an enjoyable trip - for backpackers and regular tourists alike.
