5 out of 5 stars Planning for Scotland   July 20, 2008
As I have always found in Lonely Planet Guide books, the Lonely Planet guide to Scotland is well researched and contains lots of useful information. We plan to hike the West Highland Way over the Summer of 2009 and this Lonely Planet Guide to Scotland has lots of good information about hotels and restaurants along the way. I highly recommend this book!




4 out of 5 stars Scotland overview   June 11, 2007
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

Bought the book and found the maps with cite notations most helpful upon our visits--although there were many one ways that make getting from 1 place to another difficult at times, but you can't blame the book for that. Ate and stayed at some of their suggestions and we weren't disappointed.
Book heavily geared to the younger/hostel type of traveler--we were neither, but it still provided us with a lot of helpful suggestions.



4 out of 5 stars Good travel book   November 9, 2006

I have used lonely planet travel books on my many trips to South and Central America, and I have always been happy with their information and insight. This book on Scotland continues to support my happiness with this series of travel books.


4 out of 5 stars Very good travel guide   April 20, 2000
 42 out of 42 found this review helpful

I found the Lonely Planet guide to be an excellent resource, especially when used with the Baedeker Scotland guide. LP offers truly helpful information, such as where to find maps, how to get back your VAT, weather and insect warnings... as well as brief but very descriptive chapters by region, including the oft-neglected Highlands.

Suggested itineraries are included, and the descriptions of sights, towns and historical destinations is wonderful.

While the guide is short on maps and history -- this is where the Baedeker guide does an excellent job -- it is full of useful and up-to-date information on travelling Scotland. I found my copy to be incredibly resourceful.


3 out of 5 stars Nice book, but a bit thin   July 6, 1999
 32 out of 41 found this review helpful

Lonely planet books are usually a good companion both if you're clueless or experienced. In this case however, the book is a lot thinner than the Rough Guide for Scotland and offers less information. The LP looks better, but who cares about the looks of a travel book.
