Useful to a point June 18, 2008 This is a good pocket guide with accurate and useful maps. However, it's not really in the Lonely Planet mold, not being oriented towards independent and low-cost travel. It doesn't even list hostels in its accomodation section.
which book? April 9, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I didn't get any book (it should have arrived about 20 days ago!). Amazon got already my money and it seems very hard to get it back. This was the first time I used Amazon. That would be the last too!!!

This book is small and thin enough to fit in a purse or a jacket pocket. It has all the information on tourist sites, museums, restaurants, hotels, shopping, nightlife, and "getting around" that you could possibly need. The book includes several maps of Lisbon, including a subway map.
Lonely Planet's "Best of Lisbon" was the only travel guide that my wife and I brought with us on our recent trip to Lisbon and we were very happy with it.
