4.0 out of 5 stars Still going there!, June 30, 2007
Sometimes when you read a book like this your desire to go to a place lessens. But not with this one. I am definitely going to Samoa! Get the feeling it will help me there.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive travel guide, February 23, 2009
This book provides excellent cultural information and insights in addition to the standard travel guide material. I found it to be a great reference for use in American and Western Samoa. It had just the right amound of detail in a format that was easily accessible.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lonely Planet's Samoan Islands & Tonga, January 9, 2007
By Joanie Bartels (Auckland, NZ) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
We found this book to be very helpful and especially appreciated the Conversation/ Essentials in the rear of the book.
We only visited 'Upolu, and the guide gave us important insights about the Samoan culture and etiquette which served us well.
We stayed at Sinalei Reef Resort which we would highly recommend if you are traveling without children, and the restaurant at Coconut's Beach Club was excellent.
This guide is a must if you're going to Samoa and really want to enjoy it to it's fullest.
