Nice to read, informative, better than the regular Lonely Planet book
I find the usual Lonely Planet guides overwhelming - too much information cluttered onto each page.This book is lovely. Easy to read, nicer pages, lots of info. There is also a pull out map that is A3 sized. If you need specific info on hotels etc, you'll still want the usual Lonely Planet book to compliment this one.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the buy
Reviewed in Australia on 2 May 2024
This guide no longer really has destination guides. Like what should I see or where should I stay in Nagasaki. In fact it doesn't address Nagasaki at all as an example. It seems to be focus on "how to" which quickly gets out of date eg payment types, prices, routes) and focus on the esoteric which is pretty narrow in reach. I found it disappointing and more of a weight in my bag than use.

Ben fatta e chiara da leggere ma non ci sono moltissime informazioni sui luoghi da visitare.
È una guida molto generale, magari utile a chi deve fare pochi giorni in una delle città elencate.
