JC Cornell ，

I love Lonely Planet travel books。 Great way to work out the not to miss sights before deep diving the internet。

Jennifer ，

I skittered through this， partly due to time （someone else was evidently fondly imagining they were going to get to Portugal too and the library wanted it back） but mostly because it didn't seem to offer me what I had expected and hoped。 I wasn't using it to decide where to go in Portugal， that's determined for me， but I did want to read more about that area of the Algarve and I did want to read general information a traveller would need to know， and I just didn't feel there was enough there， ei I skittered through this， partly due to time （someone else was evidently fondly imagining they were going to get to Portugal too and the library wanted it back） but mostly because it didn't seem to offer me what I had expected and hoped。 I wasn't using it to decide where to go in Portugal， that's determined for me， but I did want to read more about that area of the Algarve and I did want to read general information a traveller would need to know， and I just didn't feel there was enough there， either about the area or general information - for example there was almost nothing about how to negotiate eating out in Portugal as a vegetarian。 The edition is sufficiently new that I would have expected a lot more about how to manage as a vegan let alone my own diet。 。。。more

Judy Winton ，

Always a good travel book - Lonely Planet

Stephen ，

Beautifully illustrated and pretty thorough travel guide from Lonely planet， including plenty of Portuguese history。 This is another excellent guide book giving a flavour of the country， suggested itineraries， places to stay， things to see and a history of the country。 I liked the section about the prehistoric sites。

Timothy ，

Planning a trip to Portugal！ This is your book

Alison Calvagno ，

Great information and very interesting guide。

Steph ，

Used this on a recent 2 week trip to Portugal， just weeks after it was published。 The content was fantastic， detailed， and accurate for all our destinations， but the organization of the book is a mess。 It took me a long time to find basic content like "a recommended restaurant near my current location" or "a good place to stay in the next city。" My mid-70s mother frequently gave up because she was so frustrated with the organization of the content and the linkage of maps and text。 Definitely not Used this on a recent 2 week trip to Portugal， just weeks after it was published。 The content was fantastic， detailed， and accurate for all our destinations， but the organization of the book is a mess。 It took me a long time to find basic content like "a recommended restaurant near my current location" or "a good place to stay in the next city。" My mid-70s mother frequently gave up because she was so frustrated with the organization of the content and the linkage of maps and text。 Definitely not a book for easy use。 We had an outdated Rick Steves Portugal with us as a second book and found ourselves referring to that much more often because of the better layout。 。。。more

Steve Aldridge ，

Very helpful

Juliana ，

This is the first travel guide I （almost） read from cover to cover。 Even the history part is a good read。

Alina ，

Very useful， found a lot of nice places & advices in its pages

Jo-anne ，

A big fan of Lonely Planet guides， this book did not disappoint。

Sabine ，

Het leuke van het lezen van een Lonely Planet is， naast voorpret voor je vakantie， dat je weer heel veel leert。 Dingen waarvan je vindt dat je het eigenlijk had moeten weten。 Maar toch wist je het niet！ Ik had bijvoorbeeld geen idee dat Portugal een dictator heeft gehad， net als Spanje dus。 En dat het kiesrecht voor vrouwen pas in 1975 （！！！） is ingeregeld is al helemaal absurd。 Dus; weer wat wijzer geworden， en binnenkort op vakantie。 :）

Marie ，

I think this book was a teaser--Portugal was all and more， the beautiful landscapes， the wonderful wines， the natural resources， such as the cork oak， were amazing discoveries in person。 The book is just a warm-up for the experience of being there。

Kerry ，

I really like Lonely Planet books。 They give a good combo of info on culture， accommodation， entertainment， food and landscape。 I found this one middle of the road。 It certainly did help me figure out how to spend my time or rather where to go in Portugal。 It was mostly reliable。We got some great hotel recommendations Chiado 16 （most beautiful and largest hotel bathroom I have ever seen） and Sea Me--fantastic seafood restaurant with amazing sushi and small plates of seafood with interesting flav I really like Lonely Planet books。 They give a good combo of info on culture， accommodation， entertainment， food and landscape。 I found this one middle of the road。 It certainly did help me figure out how to spend my time or rather where to go in Portugal。 It was mostly reliable。We got some great hotel recommendations Chiado 16 （most beautiful and largest hotel bathroom I have ever seen） and Sea Me--fantastic seafood restaurant with amazing sushi and small plates of seafood with interesting flavors！ There were a few let downs regarding some restaurants/towns that just didn't measure up to the description in the book。 However， I hated the e-version of this book。 It didn't allow me to scan thru it or flip back and forth easily。 Sometimes in print is better。 Also， the latter parts of the book wouldn't download properly。 As a result， I read through a lot of it insteat of just using it as a resource。 The maps are also really difficult to read on the online version I had that wouldn't blow up larger。 Bah！ Annoying。 My complaints are more to the format of the book than the content。 。。。more

Downloaded the e-book in advance of a trip around Porto and down to Lisbon。 Different version to that shown， but then no other version on goodreads， and who reads a 2003 guide anyhow？The e-book functionality/format is shockingly poor， the presentation cruddy， but the content even suffers。 Reminisced with friends about the "Lonely planet:on a shoe string" days when the writers actually did their homework and found rare gems。 Sure， if you had an old edition the restaurants and hotels would be tour Downloaded the e-book in advance of a trip around Porto and down to Lisbon。 Different version to that shown， but then no other version on goodreads， and who reads a 2003 guide anyhow？The e-book functionality/format is shockingly poor， the presentation cruddy， but the content even suffers。 Reminisced with friends about the "Lonely planet:on a shoe string" days when the writers actually did their homework and found rare gems。 Sure， if you had an old edition the restaurants and hotels would be tourist-tired， but with a fresh edition， the book did what it said on the lable。 Not so anymore。。。 the descriptions of homely， convivial restaurants were met by a reality of a michelen staresque （prices and snootyess included） reality， the charming residences gave the impression of product placement rather than value/quality based。This guide series is rapidly reducing to a handy "itinerary and historical background" and is moving away from being up to date and useful。 。。。more

Uldis Braunfelds ，

For travalers with car。

Ine ，

good book for practical guidance

Laura ，

A good trip planner book。 However， if you are planning to travel by car， you should look to Michelin in order to establish a coherent path， even within each region。 A good trip planner book。 However， if you are planning to travel by car， you should look to Michelin in order to establish a coherent path， even within each region。 。。。more

Amandalynn ，

this helped supplement the description of places to see from the other one i got。。。if this would have been the only book i would have been most disappointed

Jolianna ，

they really know all the secret spots and their recommendations sound amazing。 I love that they are not afraid to voice an opinion - even a negative one。 this is my 7th time going to Portugal but now I am excited to discover it all over again。

Darren ，

Very informative as usual with Lonely Planet guides， just not many pictures。 But I love the maps。

Erin ，

I think we purchased or checked out every available travel guide for our 3-week Portugal journey this summer。 This was the best by far！ A lot of variety in places to stay and eat， and the travel itineraries were well-crafted。 I feel lucky that we relied on this so much because we ended up making great friends with a group of Italians who were likewise relying on their Italian Lonely Planet Portugal。 We ran into them by accident on several occasions and always at wonderful places the book had gui I think we purchased or checked out every available travel guide for our 3-week Portugal journey this summer。 This was the best by far！ A lot of variety in places to stay and eat， and the travel itineraries were well-crafted。 I feel lucky that we relied on this so much because we ended up making great friends with a group of Italians who were likewise relying on their Italian Lonely Planet Portugal。 We ran into them by accident on several occasions and always at wonderful places the book had guided us to。。。 。。。more

Good for reading on the toilet ， maps come in handy （ if you rip them out so you don't look like a dork ） 。 Everything else a bit dated and gimpy， never have any good drinking advice ， all bloody museums and churches。 Good for reading on the toilet ， maps come in handy （ if you rip them out so you don't look like a dork ） 。 Everything else a bit dated and gimpy， never have any good drinking advice ， all bloody museums and churches。 。。。more

Provided （overall） great information for the cities I visited （Lisbon， Porto， Lagos， and Sintra）。 Has some nice photos of places to see， a couple of which convinced me to see some things I wouldn't have otherwise （and I'm glad I did！） Minus a star because of some inaccuracies; granted they were relatively minor but given that this edition just came out a few months ago （March 2007）， it's hard to overlook。 Some of the maps could have been more comprehensive and tended to not display some alleys w Provided （overall） great information for the cities I visited （Lisbon， Porto， Lagos， and Sintra）。 Has some nice photos of places to see， a couple of which convinced me to see some things I wouldn't have otherwise （and I'm glad I did！） Minus a star because of some inaccuracies; granted they were relatively minor but given that this edition just came out a few months ago （March 2007）， it's hard to overlook。 Some of the maps could have been more comprehensive and tended to not display some alleys which got me lost a couple of times。 And their "pick" for restaurants more often than not tended to be relatively expensive places。。。it'd be better if they had a "pick" in each category （budget， moderate， expensive）。 Having said that， the times I went to their "picks，" the food was excellent。 。。。more
