I know many, many people like the Lonely Planet series, so every once in a while I go to one of them and always find it lacking. I'm off to Provence in exactly one month, and as usual I am depending on Rick Steves and the Rough Guide (both of these on France as a whole, vs the specific area). The Lonely Planet is up to date and has all sorts of links (I read Kindle versions, as my eyes need large print) - too many links for my taste, but it simply does offer the detail of my preferred guides.

After this attempt I shall probably not even bother again.

Restaurant and accommodation suggestions taking too much place in the book. Of course, they are important as well, however, lots of pages becoming boring after a while.

Just what I needed before my first trip to the Mediterranean shores of France! Informative and well organized material.

Pretty good. Was useful. Would recommend. Buy? Maybe not, it covers areas we don't want/need (yet).
TPL e-book.

Flight booked, gite reserved, dreaming and planning underway!

It seems rather silly to rate a travel guide until AFTER our holiday, but LP has yet to steer me wrong. This one is now chock-a-block stuffed with post-its and scribbles...

Re reading bits of this for an upcoming trip, and again, I find no fault in these books, in fact I bought some for the library as they were in need of better travel books. I just reread it as I bought this for myself. A good guide.

I prefer the Rick Steves guides, but this is a decent guide.

this was a weirdly family oriented lonely planet, but I MIGHT GO THERE ANYWAY while i'm studying abroad this summer because the fucking beach, you know?
