Lonely Planet Iran (3rd Edition)
This Lonely Planet is not good: While the guide is relatively useful for hotels (prices are outdated), it is not very interesting for the restaurants nor transport (many many obvious options aren't listed), nor for other practical information as many of [... more]

Lonely Planet Jordan
Good Guide Book...but...: Much more informative than LP's "Jordan & Syria" edition. There are a couple of beautiful pictures of Wadi Rum in here, and some decent background info on archeological sites around Jordan. Border crossing politics [... more]

Lonely Planet Libya
Far too 'positive' about Libya, and with some inaccuracies: By all means, this Lonely Planet guide is an extremely useful tool for those travelling in Libya, and is probably the best guidebook about the country. The author and editors have put some great [... more]

Lonely Planet Tunisia
Pretty good: All in all, I was very happy with this guide. It was the right size (not too thick, not too sparse), was very informative, and had great maps. I even liked the recommended routes (since Tunisia is small, it's very possible to "do" [... more]

Lonely Planet Saudi Arabia
An ok place to start: As with most guidebooks, you can't really expect much depth in this one. I think the book errs in trying too hard to discuss political events and not enough on what the country's really like. It's not at all clear, in fact, that Mr. [... more]

Lonely Planet Arabian Peninsula
Very useful indeed: This book became a surrogate Bible for my father and me on a recent trip to the UAE, Yeman and Oman. It's a tad out of date as regards the big cities - Dubai, for example, has even more hotels and malls than the book would indicate - [... more]

Middle East (Multi Country Guide)
An OK Book, but LP is getting more chinsy by the moment: First of all, let me say I always travel with Lonely Planet books (even in my native Pacific Northwest) as there is no better product on the market for the independent traveler. Others may have [... more]

new guide is better: Looking at the dates, it seems like the reader reviews for this book are all for the old guide. The new version just came out, and I think it looks and reads a lot better, so maybe it's time to put up some new reader reviews. um, i [... more]
