Customer Reviews

Seems tailor made for us
Many guidebooks from our previous vacations have ended up barely opened, this one is already well thumbed. My wife and I are going for a long trip to Australia, including three weeks in Sydney. We already had a general guidebook to Australia, but looked at many books in search of the perfect Sydney guide - and this is it. Just about every page has something that caught my eye as a "must do". Not just the obvious sights, but more importantly plenty of quirky things that stood out as fun and memorable. Clearly a lot of work has gone into this book, and it has paid off. Highly recommended.

It's a Lonely Planet Guide!
For those of you who have previously purchased a Lonely Planet Guide, this edition provides all the high-quality information you always rely on them to provide. Approximately A5 size it's not quite pocket-sized but is still compact and gives a lot of great information about where to go, what to do, where to eat/sleep etc and the pull out map is very handy and better than a lot of the tourist ones you always get given. Very hard to find fault with this guide!
