Customer Reviews

The book is very confusing in electronic format.
Sandra J. Singery
It is way too vague, not user friendly and difficult to maneuver around.
Barb Douma
We came across the Rough Guide while in South Africa and it was better.

I have been using LP guides for 30+ years. I have bought over 50 of them. I am noticing that the new writers and editors have started steering away from the most enjoyable and unique places that LP guides introduced me to decades ago and has begun leading their readers towards the more expensive well known places. In the LP "South Africa" the perfect example is that LP no longer individually lists or describes the fantastic Bushveld Camps inside Krueger National Park, but instead spends 4+ pages describing the private game reserves around Krueger. I no longer trust these guides to lead me to the uncommon, the unique, the affordable, the places that thrill. I would return this guide if I could as my trust in LP has been shattered.

The book did not have enough detail outside of the three largest cities in South Africa. South Africa has many nice places and the country warrants its own book. We came across the Rough Guide while in South Africa and it was better.

This quide was a life saver several times on my trip to South Africa, but it is only a starting point. There is so much they couldn't capture (or the book would be huge). Use in combination with the internet. South Africa is the most beautiful place I have ever visited.

I have lived by Lonely Planet for many many years now, but I have to say that the Kindle version is useless! It is way too vague, not user friendly and difficult to maneuver around. I will try to get a refund if possible. I don't know if I just can't figure it out or what, but either way, its a pain in the neck. Stick to hard copies.

Gave us lots of information about different districts, travel, food, etc. We used it to prepare for our Honeymoon in South Africa and got a ton of information. Used it while there to plan side excursions. Great Reference!

The book is very confusing in electronic format. I would love to have the option to upgrade and get the book in paper. I never thought I would say that.

Just what we needed to do some planning prior to the trip. And we'll carry it with us when we do head over there.
