Highlights include more than 200 traveler-tested maps, thousands of places to stay and eat for all budgets, excellent health information, all you need to know about transportation options, and a 32-page color section on India's religions. --Kathryn True -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine vergriffene oder nicht verf�gbare Ausgabe dieses Titels.

1.0 von 5 Sternen Unzuverl�ssig und veraltet, 15. April 2008

Von	A traveller (Germany) - Alle meine Rezensionen ansehen

Diese Rezension stammt von: India (Lonely Planet India) (Taschenbuch)

Concerning Lonely Planet Publications; 12th rev. edition (21. September 2007), ISBN-10: 1741043085

Overall: We were in India for 2 months (Feb/Mar 2008; this is NOT high season!) and this was by far the worst LP guidebook I ever had for almost 2 decades. Although only 6 months old almost all of its information is outdated.

Examples:
- In most hotels you pay approximately 50-100% more
- Between many destinations LP indicates only very few buses (2-4 per day) but in fact there are 20 to 30.
- And thousand other examples

How could that be?

First we thought that some writers (about one dozen wrote this LP) cheated LP. E.g. after facing so many things different from the LP in Radjasthan we asked a hotel owner in Udaipur why his rooms are 100% more expansive than indicated in the LP.
His answer was: "The last time the LP guy came here was more than 3 years ago. Have a look: In the newest LP is my art shop described, but I closed it more than 2 years ago. The information in the guidebook is old."
=> You can have a look who wrote the Radjasthan part...

But when we received similar statements in other Indian states (which were described by other authors) we came to the conclusion that not almost every author could have cheated LP. => Make up you own mind about the only possible explanation

Sometimes it becomes really ridiculous. It seems that LP sometimes ESTIMATED the current costs and prices instead of sending the authors to India again for the current 12th edition.
Examples:
- From Mamallapuram to Chennai Airport it is stated in the LP that you have to bargain really very hard at the local taxi stand directly and can be very lucky to pay only 900 Rs. for the ride. Sorry LP, but every travel agency in Mamallapuram (appr. each 5 meters) offers with very big letters this ride for 800 Rs. without any bargaining ...and oil prices which are the main cost component for taxi prices in India increased significantly from Sep 2007 to Feb 2008... I think from the taxi stand you should be able to get the ride for 600-650 Rs.
- From Pondycherry to Mamallapuram the LP writes that there are only 4-5 direct buses daily. Sorry LP-idiots, but this changed some years ago and now there is a direct bus every 20 minutes...
- and thousand other examples

Our advice: Buy a different guidebook for India. This has also the advantage that you go for different hotels than described in the LP. In every city we found far better hotels concerning the price-value-ratio than described in the LP

Some useful hints from us for India:

- When you plan your journey and want to use trains check out
http://www.indianrail.gov.in/inet_srcdest_names.html
at home and make hardcopies of all the trains between two destinations. Brings these printouts to India You will be lucky in India to know the train numbers which you always need for reservations in India. These timetables make the whole conversation at the train stations much easier.

- Buy your train tickets as soon as possible (every hour counts!), always some days in advance! Do not be afraid to get a ticket on the waiting list if you are in the low double digits. You can check via internet some ours before if you got a seat in the end (high probability) or not. If not you will get all your money back at the train station except for a fee of 20 Rs.

- Keep in mind that you can buy train tickets at every station in India for all rides (needn't be in the same city!)

- Use buses! They are going really very frequently and are mostly the better alternative to trains! Except for one case we never waited more than 30 minutes for the next bus in two months!
LP says that bus rides are unsafe in India. Complete bullshit!!!!!!! They are really the same like in Thailand or Middle America etc. Maybe the LP authors compared the risks with buses in Disneyland?

- Bring small USD bills (1 and 5 USD). For the most tourist sites you pay 100 Rs. or 2 USD entrance fee (your own choice). Keep in mind: Currently 1 USD equals approximately 38 Rs. For world heritage sites India demands 250 Rs. or 5 USD entrance fee
=> You save with USD bills more than 1 Euro per person. Keep in mind that normally (except the Taj Mahal) the guys at the entrance cannot change USD. Therefore bring small USD bills.

There would be many more things to say. Find them out by your own and best WITHOUT this LP for India!!!!!!!!!

Von Ein Kunde

Diese Rezension stammt von: India (Lonely Planet India) (Taschenbuch)

Gladly I did not choose this guidebook for my recent vacation to India and what a pleasure it was to see all the backpackers faithfully reading the LP like a bible and doing everything it says along the well beaten path. I was pleased to be heading the other way as all the rest followed the LP cheap tourist track. The India Handbook was a fantastic alternative. Smaller, concise, and much more informative.

2.0 von 5 Sternen the hippie's bible for India, 2. September 1999

Von Ein Kunde

Diese Rezension stammt von: India (Lonely Planet India) (Taschenbuch)

It's both amazing and pathetic how many rucksack travelers to India follow every word of this book as if it were some holy scripture. So many travelers spend their all of their time with their noses in this book, trying to fill every last moment following each and every step recommended by the book. In the meantime, all too often, they fail to experience India itself. Such devotion to a travel guide is a bizarre phenomenon. Without a doubt, this book is an indispensible guide for those who truly need assistance in knowing on which Bombay street corner they should tie their shoe laces. There's too much chit chat and lame humour in this book (although, granted, it evidently appeals to some). To the book's credit, there are some nice city layouts and state maps. However, for travelers who prefer information without all of the weak attempts at humor and for those who prefer to make their own opinions rather than to blindly follow someone else's words, I would wholeheartedly recommend Robert Bradnock's India Handbook. I've traveled India with both books, and clearly Bradnock's is, in my opinion, the superior of the two.
