This review is from: Lonely Planet Fiji (Country Travel Guide) (Paperback)

I've been thinking about going to Fiji for a number of years now, and despite Lonely Planet's stumbling as of late with the quality of their travel books, I feel this is back to meeting the standards which we expect for Lonely Planet. There's a wealth of information, and on my quick spotchecks of hotels, how to get from A to B and activities, the information was accurate.

I'm quite impressed with the depth of the book, and instead of a high-level overview dedicated to tourists who will never venture off the beaten path, it seems that the authors really did their homework. I feel confident that I can use this book as a primary source of information and my "go to" reference.

Now comes the bad part: Actually having to save up for the trip to Fiji.
