Travel Guides
Posted in General Travel Tips, Kewl Stuff, Travel Technology on Oct 31st, 2008
Here is a good article from a travel blog called everything-everywhere.com. You can find the article here. I agree that the guidebook is being supplanted by online information. There may be room for both but I turn more to the internet these days than I do the guidebooks. I have a cousin in Spain who tells me that Lonely Planet essentially takes bribes in order to give good reviews. I believe him since he has no agenda for or against travel books. He’s in the catering business so he deals with with people in the hotel industry, etc and he tells me what he hears.
This is a good blog with lots of great pics. Check it out.
