5.0 out of 5 stars A great guidbook, May 9, 2007

This review is from: Lonely Planet Mexico, 10th Edition (Paperback)
I've been living in Mexico for almost a year now and used this book on a lot of travels throughout the country. The information is concise and extremely useful, the maps are great and the price indications help you stay within your budget.
I also bought Footprint's Mexico & Central America and have to say that even though it was from the same year the Footprint book was a lot less accurate and information a lot more difficult to find.
The only thing I critizise about the book is that the information about Culiacán is missing (?) and since there are a lot of new cheap Mexican airlines, there should be more airport information included (e.g. Cuernavaca's airport isn't even mentioned)

This review is from: Lonely Planet Mexico, 10th Edition (Paperback)
I took this book and Frommer's Mexico 2007 with me to Oaxaca. The organization and readability (print size) was not as good as Frommer's, but the content (number of overall recommendations for places to eat, stay and see) seemed better, and it also appeared to have more information than Frommer's. Reading on the fly was a little harder, since I usually had to pull out my reading specs and had to rely heavily on bookmarks(dog ears). So I wound up relying it less in this regard, and read it more for study during the hotel stay in the morning and evening. I wound up taking Frommer's with me more, and leaving the Lonely Planet in my hotel room. I found that a synthesis of both books (readability and organization) would be the ideal book. Both books, however, should have an appendix for additional listings as I found that what there were frequently popular restaurant sites not listed in neither book. Places to visit seemed to be most reliable in both books. Hotel accommodation recommendations seemed the second most reliable source, followed by eateries. The maps also seemed about equal with better details (although Frommer's offered a free Map to Mexico, which could be could for traveling from state to state, but hot too helpful in the actual locales, for this I bought local maps at the "librearias.")in the Lonely Planet, although sometimes oddly placed.
