1.0 out of 5 stars You've got to be kidding me, December 17, 2002
Lonely PLanet makes fine books but this is NOT one of them. I have toured the island several times and apparently the author and I have not been to the same places. Or rather the writer merely went as far as the nearest tourist office and copied the local brochures. I found his descriptions of all of the historical sites inaccurate -- museums the size of 10 x 10 room are described as "large" and worth half a day; sites are described as "near the village" when they are right in the middle -- hence the author was never there. The language glossary doesn't even include "Please, Thank You or Excuse Me."

1.0 out of 5 stars Yawn, June 7, 2006
I expected a "Lonely Planet" guide to help me explore off the beaten track, but I found this book too bland and long-winded to use. Some of the information is useful, but some is out of date. The "Eye Witness Top Ten Cyprus" suited me better to help me explore the beauty and appeal of Cyprus.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good, but hardly the "only" guide to Cyrpus, March 10, 2001
By A Customer
This is an excellent guide book to the island. However, contrary to the previous reviewer's comments there are many other guide books to Cyprus, some of them quite fine - and Amazon sells them too. The Rough Guide is also excellent.
