Frommer's Mexico 2009

by David Baird, Lynne Bairstow, Joy Hepp

Completely updated every year (unlike most of the competition), Frommer’s Mexico features gorgeous full-color photos of the white-sand beaches, mysterious ruins, and colorful market towns that await you. Our authors have lived in and written about Mexico for years, so they’re able to provide valuable insight and advice. They’ll steer you away from the touristy and the inauthentic, and show you the real heart of Mexico. Let them take you to exciting cities, charming colonial towns, lovely beach resorts, ancient ruins, traditional Maya villages, and natural wonders, from the Copper Canyon to the whale migration off Baja.

You’ll travel Mexico like a pro with our candid advice and handy Spanish-language glossary. Also included are accurate regional and town maps (including site plans of the major ruins), up-to-date advice on finding the best package deals, a free color fold-out map, and an online directory that makes trip-planning a snap!

I'm not a Frommers fan (more a Lonely Planet kind of a girl), but since I found this one at half price books I went for it. So far it's functioning but I'm still not excited about it. I did first see La Cuidad de los Ninos here.

I really have the 2002 edition.

I got this book not realizing there wasn't much on Puerto Vallarta. Good thing I have another one coming!

[Amy Cohen · Rating 3 out of 5]

There isn't much on Cozumel in this book. I do like how it (and Frommer's books in general) rates various hotels.
