Not Very Impressive, February 15, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Let's Go 98 New Zealand (Annual) (Paperback)
While I thought that Let's Go Europe was great, this guide really wasn't as good as I expected. I found myself constantly asking to borrow other traveler's Lonely Planets. While I like the style in which they write, there just wasn't enough information provided. They would only list 2 hostels in a town which had 6, which would really annoy me when trying to book rooms during the peak season. Additionally, I didn't feel that the Let's Go researchers even attempted to go off the beaten path. While I am not the kind of person who needs a travel guide to tell them everything, I think the Let's Go New Zealand has a long way to go. Perhaps once it has a few more years under its belt it will be a more worthwhile read.

This is the third "Let's Go" guide I've used in my travels. I never take a vacation without one of these books in my ruck!
