It okay but I wouldn't purchase again

Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2019

Verified Purchase

I'm a huge fan of travel books and Lonely Planet so this book was a big disappointment. I tried to use it to plan for a recent NZ trip and started with the book and then used online travel resources (via google and instagram travel bloggers) as my primary source. I did cross reference a couple things in this book but definitely not enough to get my money's worth from this purchase.

Not especially useful

Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2019

Verified Purchase

I bought this book to plan for an upcoming trip to New Zealand. I began reading it, and it soon became apparent the it really wasn't helping me make decisions on what areas to see, and which to pass on. Instead I did some searches on the internet for what interested me (mostly hiking) and was able to devise an itinerary much more quickly and easily. I will bring the book along on my trip, so it might yet be useful. But so far, it hasn't been.

Over 700 pp of Dry Reading.

Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2019

Verified Purchase

I purchased this guide because of all of the reviews, I found this guide to be pretty dry reading. It has over 700 pages, but the layout is not super helpful when trying to find good tidbits of information on each place to see. They list a lot of vendors to call for guided trips but no individual walks, hikes, or things to do in each area that are not commercially motivated. There are very few photos, and the chapters are not well broken up. I need a travel guide to get me excited about the trip, not a text book to put me to sleep.

Appears to be very comprehensive

Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2019

Verified Purchase

I've skimmed Lonely Planet New Zealand, and I like its format, especially the numerous itineraries at the beginning that give suggestions for how a traveler might want to divide up their time there, depending on the time available, one's interests, etc. The chapters look well organized as well. However, until I actually travel there, I wouldn't be able to rate this guidebook on its accuracy

a little dated, but super helpful in navigating New Zealand

Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2020

Verified Purchase

some of the prices have increased from last printing and one or two new things like restaurants not in the book, but otherwise pretty accurate and super helpful for planning a trip to New Zealand. By the way if you have never been, definitely go, such a cool place. We enjoy holiday park tent camping, you don't need much in the way of kitchen gear or a full ice chest as they have refers and full kitchens with usually some pots and pans available or rentable. Do bring a warm sleeping bag, especially South Island, as even in Summer the nights can get a bit chilly.

Wow - this is an amazing resource. They really break it all down in great detail and even provide tips for books and movies to see/read before your trip to give you a sense of place. Just can't recommend this highly enough.

Great guide to the country and culture

We ordered two copies. One for us and one for our son and his girlfriend, who were traveling in the country for two weeks before we arrived. We referred to it constantly and found it supremely helpful.

New Zealand - in Lonely Planet's Top 10 places to visit!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 29, 2018

Verified Purchase

We're heading for New Zealand in 2 weeks time. Wanted the most up to date information available.
Lots of information.
I'm mainly going to visit areas that feature my great great grandfather William George Malone. I didn't find out anything from the Lonely Planet guide about these, though thats my only disappointment.

I wish I had longer in New Zealand to visit all the amazing places I've found in this book.

I like the helpful advice at the back.

Great book

Great informative book. We wanted to see what excursions we could do when travelling around New Zealand. There was so much information about so many of the regions we now have a full packed 3 week holiday sorted.

Disappointing

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 17, 2019

Verified Purchase

Compared to other lonely planet guides, this really lacks photos, making it hard to get a visual idea of differences between areas. Very detailed though and probably a good buy if you already know which parts of NZ you want to visit.
