As ever, another fantastic Lonely Planet publication. My only qualm is that the pull-out map is for Vancouver rather than Toronto, the city which I visited, but there is so much information here, and so many recommendations of places to visit. I will definitely look forward to reading it again on future trips to Canada.

Lonely Planet Guides are the best! I've used them for my own out-of-country travels and thought I'd see what they had to say about my own. The contributors did an excellent job! In fact, they gave a few recommendations that made me inwardly cringe: "Don't tell everyone! Think of the lines!"

I did not find that this guide did Canada justice. Maybe due to the fact that I am from Canada and have been fortunate enough to have traveled across the entire country I was hoping for more. Mind you, I did not use this book as a traveler. An Australian friend of mine asked me to look at his copy and tell me whether it was worth while having on his cross-Canada road trip.

It's new (as I write) and seems an improvement over the last Lonely Planet guide I purchased on Canada back in 1996. I'm not sure about the addition of colour to the product. When I have had a more comprehensive read of the guide I'll let you know how it stacks up.

As usual with Lonely Planet, this guide gives you all the information you need if you want to travel around in Canada. Or if you trying to find the motivation to do so. (DO IT)

I use this book all the time. Even if you live in Canada it's great when people come visit or if you find yourself in a new city.

Can't wait to go back! F-U Coronavirus! ;)

Lonely Planet Books are indispensable, I just wish they were better at referencing the map in the text, and the page ref from the map key.

I'm trying Ringo. I'm trying real hard.
