4.0 out of 5 stars Let's Go Mexico: 2000, June 7, 2000

I just spent about 3 months in Mexico with this book as my only travel guide. It worked out quite well, despite nearly being destroyed by a large Pacific wave! It seems particularly good if you are traveling on a tight budget. The prices, etc. were more or less up to date--I doubt you'll ever find anything up-to-the-minute, but this was sufficient for all of the parts of Mexico, and even Guatemala, that I visited. My only complaint was that the authors had a somewhat condescending style and repeatedly made comments that I construed as belittling the locals in some of the areas (I remember Teotihuacan as one example). But that aside, I'm sure this is one of the better guides out there. The Lonely Planet "La Ruta Maya" guide to the Yucatan, Belize, and Guatemala seemed somewhat more useful for that region--not as confined by the national boundaries.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best budget travel guidebook to MEXICO, February 18, 2000

As far as I am concerned Lets Go series are the best way to go on a journey. They cover the main topics on each city and give you a good idea of the town you will be visiting. I have used them since 1997 (so far Europe, USA and Canada, Mexico and Central America). Here I have found information that no other guide book provides. It is written in a very American style and I am sure it fits most TRAVELERS - not tourists-. Anually updated (believe me I have compared the editions). I always recomend this book to my friends traveling to MeXiCo. I trust my budget travel vacation on Lets Go. If in doubt... email me: [e-mail]

I have not traveled to Mexico yet, but I just heared of a wonderful Mexican island from a friend, Isla Holbox, off the Yucatan. I searched for a guidebook... Well most guides don't mention it, and some that did not make the place sound very nice. _Let's Go Mexico_ has a couple pages on Isla Holbox, describing it as "the hidden treasure of the Yucatan." This pretty much matches my friend's description. Hope to tell you more after I see the place! I have used books in this series throughout Europe, they helped me alot; _Let's Go Mexico_ seems to be in the same spirit.
