The Only guide to Portugal you need

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago

Just back from a week-long trip to Portugal (which included several regions as well as Lisbon), I strongly recommend this guide! Having had the chance to review (and use) several other guides on Portugal, including Fodor'sFodor's Portugal, 8th Edition (Fodor's Gold Guides), Frommer'sFrommer's Portugal (Frommer's Complete), EyewitnessPortugal (Eyewitness Travel Guides), I can assuredly say that this was the most informative, comprehensive, practical and well-balanced guide of the bunch. Yes, it does not give you the most wonderful glossy pictures that Eyewitness provides, and perhaps the description of restaurants and hotels may not be as expansive (though they are solid) as Frommer's, but Lonely Planet achieves the type of balance between facts, background, recommendations and maps that none of the other guides do. Pair this with Lonely Planet's Portuguese Phrasebook Portuguese: Lonely Planet Phrasebook and you'll be all set to travel.

Excellent service

This book was shipped to me very promptly by the seller, despite the fact that I had selected the standard shipping method. My questions were also answered very quickly via email. I would definitely recommend him and buy from him again.

Great book, quick delivery, reasonable price

Lonely Planet provides a great complement to my reliance on Rick Steves. Between the two I am able to map out wonderful trips, with LP providing the lower end of the cost scale way to go about traveling. Cleanly laid out, written in a way to convey information rather than overawe the reader, their guides are invaluable, timely, and fun.
