Have you ever used the Lonely Planet travel guides?
Have you ever found a mistake in them (I mean a glaring one, not that something costs more than they said it would)?
What was the worst mistake you ever found in a travel guide?
To be honest, I think they're ok travel guide for a certain type. They're pretty limited in the history aspect, and usually only give the most obvious and cliche information about any site or monument.
They're ok as far as eating and sleeping is concerned, and their maps are terrible.
Yes
The Bahai Gardens in Haifa require a reservation months ahead. LP forgot to mention this important detail. For someone coming to Haifa expressly for this, this might be a big disappointment.
They are fine for a general traveller. But we cant expect the costs and expenses as exactly as mentioned in the guide.
I use them and haven't found any problems.
