There is also more depth and more insight. This is more...

This review is from: Lonely Planet Yemen (Paperback)

This review is from: Lonely Planet Yemen (Paperback)
Other travel guides cover all of the Middle East. The entire LP Guide to Yemen covers only one country, Yemen. Therefore, there is more actionable information on Yemen including more town maps, photos, and descriptions of villages and tribal areas where you can find traditional life less touched by modern ways. There is also more depth and more insight. This is more valuable than having a guide with a more recent publication date. It is indespensible for navigating along the path less traveled. Traveling on your own, I wouldn't go without it. You would risk bypassing places and that could cause you post-travel regrets.
