 Great, Extensive, and Very Helpful September 23, 2007
This book was very helpful. It has chapters on every region in India. It gives good hotel recommendations. It also describes what to see if you are only in a place for some number of days, which is very helpful. The only negative is that it is too big to carry around everywhere.
They never disappoint July 22, 2007

Being an avid traveler, I have always trusted Lonely Planet guide books and I've never been disappointed. With India being such a big country, I am impressed with the amount of information provided in order to have a wonderful experience. I'm currently planning my trip to India and it has proven to be very helpful so far!
Lonely Planet India July 4, 2007
More information than most people need. Maps are small and hard to read. Text is easier to read than the Rough Guide. Wish Lonely Planet would publish a guide to Northern India at a decent price. Most travelers only need the areas around Rajasthan, Delhi, Agra, and Varanasi.
Lonely Planet India Guidebook June 7, 2007
This is a comprehensive book covering the sites and the history of India. An excellent companion for the trip.
 quality still not high May 22, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
As with all LP guides, success and industrial-style production have brought wealth to the owners but quality has suffered. This book doesn't have as many egregious errors as some previous editions, but it's still weak in many ways. Although sometimes it's delightful, like when the Great Value Hotel in Dehradun is praised for having a candle in each room "for romantic lighting"!! (Anyone who has been to India knows what the candles are really there for---emergency lighting for when the power fails, which can happen daily.)
