This is the best!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Philippines Travel Guide (Paperback)
I have many books & guides on the Philippines but this is the best written and most accurate I have ever seen. While there are many good guides not to be missed out there like Evelyn Peplow's "The Philippines" and Jill & Rebecca Gale De Villa's "Philippines Guide", this one definately surpasses them all, it's the guide I pack on my Philippine trips now. It doesn't deal with as much history as some of the others, but remember, this is a guide and not a history book. The info is exactly what a traveler needs to know. For example, let's say your in Manila and want to visit Naga City,it will tell you how much it will cost, how long it will take to get there by plane,train and bus. It also tells you hotels & resturants in the area & how much everything cost.It tells you of any festivals in that area,stores,churches,banks and other misc places in the area, also has a street map with all the points of interest pointed out for you. There's over 170 maps in this book. There is so much more this book offers that no other does, but it would take too long to long to list them all.So to sum it up, if your looking for the best actual travel guide then this is it.

Philippines travel guide,
By Terry (Stirling, Scotland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Philippines Travel Guide (Paperback)
When I'm traveling, I like to have a book I can depend on. If I read that there's a ferry from A to B leaving on Sundays at 6am, then I like to know I can be sure it'll be there for me. If my travel guide tells me a hotel is clean but basic, I want to know what to expect. If it says a restaurant is excellent, I have to trust the writer's taste if I go there.All of the above are the case with Mr Peters' book, which I've used over the years in various editions. This latest one is the best there is if you're heading for the Philippines.

The only Philippine guide to take on your trip,
By A Customer
This review is from: Philippines Travel Guide (Paperback)
This is the only guide you need to buy when you are planning a trip to the Philippines. The author is the same person who wrote the first 6 editions of Lonely Planet Philippines, which used to be the best guide on the Philippines, but if you are like so many people who are disillusioned by the 7th edition, buy this book. The book is well researched and not as biased as other guide books.
