Summary: Not what I expected! Too generic, not much information!
Comment: This book is a big disappointment. I thought it would be filled with maps and diagrams of the places discussed. Nope. Just a couple of very basic maps and I do mean basic. Much of the information appears to be out-of-date and there are many omissions in the Roatan section so I am guessing the same goes for the rest of the book. The parts that I did read were so boring and generic that I really couldn't get more than a few pages in each section. Yeah, it has some nice color photos in the front of the book. But I could have gotten that elsewhere. BIG disappointment.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Just O.K.
Comment: I read this book fairly through in trying to determine where and what to do Honduras. Afterwards I ordered the Moon handbook of Honduras and was much more impressed with the maps, detailed descriptions and the quantity of information. Just the better book period.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Another Score for Lonely Planet and Central America Fans!
Comment: As you would expect a Lonely Planet guide to be, this book is thorough and complete with gorgeous color photos and many maps. We are headed to Honduras via Roatan on February 17th and will be taking this book along! I purchased it to give as a gift but I couldn't help sneaking peaks in it before I wrapped it!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Lonely planet 'Lonely'
Comment: This is one of the few books solely on Honduras and their coverage of all aspects of travel there is excellent. Specifics such as language help, money, health, and transportation are well defined. Plus a good read for history.
