I found This book a good help and way to get to know about your destination(Ecuador). I read this book and enjoy it. I liked the way the author present his information to the readers about this destination. I have been to Ecuador and comparing the information that the author presented in his book, with some other local and travel guides of Ecuador i can see that there are some important missing information. In the other hand the book provides lot of good information, recomendations of what to do and visit when you visit this country. The author gets you to this trip while you are reading it, and makes you want to be there. I sugguest that anybody that is going to Ecuador to read this book before they go there. The author provides you with lot ... Read More:

A good guide, which gives needed info to get around. For business travelers, this book should go with another book by a Chinese journalist George Zhibin Gu, China's Global Reach: Markets, Multinationals, and Globalization, which offers indepth analysis on current Chinese business and political affairs.

This is the first time I've been disappointed with a Lonely Planet publication. I found this guide to Italy superficial and not helpful. It didn't contain information about some quite large towns, information about reaching destinations in scant and maps are not easy to read. And I preferred it when Lonely Planet put all the general information in the front of the book followed by the specifics region by region.

Just got back Jan 2006 and found out how badly this book needed to be redone. Rumours of a book written by a former Lonely planet writer being a million times better has urged me to find that for my next trip. Don't rely on this book if you are thinking of going there without a plan. And whatever they say, never bring traveller's cheques!! I ended up getting stuck with all of my money tied up in cheques and had to call home to get money transferred. So don't bother with this book if you are going to the most beautiful place in the world!!

.Nova Scotia, New Brunswick & Prince Edward Island

We spent three weeks touring all over P.E.I., Nova Scotia and New Brunswick and in that time this book provided only one useful reference. Following the restaurant recommendations proved disastrous and the book failed to identify and prioritize places of interest.

The tourism offices at provincial borders and in various towns along the way were much more helpful in identifying places to visit and finding places to stay.

Don't buy this book. Instead you should get a road map, ask some friends for their opinions.
