Love the Lonely Planet travel guides, this was another good one

I admittedly didn't read all of this, but the overview information at the start of the book was excellent and extremely informative.

Great, quick overview and small enough to bring on the trip!

even tho' I lived in London (ages ago) this book has some great ideas and knowledge

I'm planning several trips for next year and I want to choose the best guide to take along. This is detailed and interesting and thorough but larger and heavier than I would want to carry. It is perfect for planning a trip and I will buy one. I am checking several more out from the library's I'll be reporting on those, too.

Heerlijk! In de voorbereiding op een mooie trip deze zomer de Lonely Planet van Londen lezen is een genot. Niet alleen heb ik weer van alles geleerd over de geschiedenis van Londen; zeker ook de actualiteit komt ruim aan bod.

Excellent choice for a guidebook to London

FALSE

Solid introduction to London with a great history/culture section. Doesn't have quite the distinctive "voice" as other travel guides do (like the Moon guides), if that's something you notice.

Added to my London list: William Morris' Red House and the Design Museum.

I personally like lonely planet series.

Don't leave home without it!

Great Resource

Lonely Planet does a great job of compiling everything one needs to know about a city then presenting it in an appealing way. One feels well prepared, but also able to easily refer to any of the guides for reference.
