Lonely Planet Bolivia

Very satisfied with my purchase. Exactly as expected and came in a very timely manner.

The Essential Guide to Bolivia

I have used a ton of different guidebooks in my travels, but I always come back to Lonely Planet. That is the one I always have packed with me when I go. This is the essential guidebook for all who are travelling to Bolivia. I used the Lonely Planet Guidebook for Bolivia when I went a few years ago and I just bought this one since I am planning a trip to Bolivia next summer. Lonely Planet has never let me down.

Food and festivals

A great overview of the country and certainly an essential companion to any trip to this underrated country. Food and festival entries are particularly good and help in any trip planning. Always impressed with the quality of LP publications and the recommendations were good.

Solid LP material

This book is nicely revised for the modern age as it quickly helps you make up your mind where to go in Bolivia by using photo highlights and sample itineraries. The advice on activities I found to be solid and reliable. Alas, the book suffers from several imperfections, such as listing places to stay and eat that no longer reflect the description and overly enthusiastic highlights and recommendations (the biggest bummer for me was the promise that Salar de Uyuni reflects the sky with "any amount of water in it" - not true, I paid for extra trip to see the Salar before and after a rain because of LP and then learned from my experience and the locals that the Salar fills up only in Jan/Feb during the height of the rainy season, but most of the year when it rains the place is just gray and gloomy...) You can address those imperfections by ignoring accommodation recommendations (just walk the street where you want to stay and ask to see the room before you check in - there are plenty of better and cheaper places to stay in Bolivia than the book mentions) and don't expect to see "Lonely Planet moments" anywhere you go (you will see some, if you have luck and good weather, but the sun does not shine every day even in Bolivia). Anyway, Bolivia is a great country to visit and the book was useful on my trip. Too bad it got stolen at an internet place in La Paz :(
