This review is from: Argentina (Country Guide) (Paperback) Customer review from the Amazon Vine ™ Program (What's this?) Having spent the most memorable part of my childhood in Buenos Aires, with some trips to peripheral areas, this book is a wonderful trip through memory lane, looking for things that were there many years ago, and reading about all the changes that have happened since. Lonely Planet This book is a thick, because Argentina has one of the most diverse landscapes of any country in the world, from the breathtaking Iguazu Falls, the magnificent views of the region of Tierra del Fuego. From the towering Andes to the Fauna Reserve Valdez Peninsula via the Atlantic Ocean.
For those interested in wildlife and nature, the wonders of Patagonia, are impressive. Whale watching has never been greater. View the gauchos on the pampas, the tango dancers in Buenos Aires. Sip fine wine, and eat the best beef you've ever tasted. Yes, the debt-ridden Argentina has its problems, this book points: extreme poverty, and although it has excellent conservation laws, it is negligent to enforce them.
You will need a pocket magnifying glass if you are taking this book on your journey. Not only is a thick volume, but also has small print, and has many maps, but everyone needs enlargement. It has everything a tourist needs to know the exchange rates of business hours: bars stay open until 6 am, and the shops open at 8 AM. Not much time to sleep, when you're having fun!
A nice touch in this volume of Lonely Planet are the 5 personal profiles on the "My Dear Argentina", which is accompanied by photos, one of the 3 sections of this book is illustrated with color photos. The book also includes Chilean Patagonia and 60 pages devoted to Uruguay if you want to make the short trip across the Rio de la Plata to visit this small but charming.
Lonely Planet Bravo for this comprehensive and informative book about my beloved Argentina!
This review is from: Argentina (Country Guide) (Paperback) Customer review from the Amazon Vine ™ Program (What's this?) I am going to Argentina. Really I am. I did not know until I got this guide, but having lived with it for a while, I know I'm going. My next holiday will be on the road in Argentina. I am renting a car and see the country. I will get up close with penguins. I'll see the Andes. I'll see all the places Argentina has to offer.
After reading this book. And I mean I read it, not just turn the pages and even looking a little here and there, I feel inspired, but before I go, I'll have to get a new copy because it has a broken spine, because I had to be kept open a little too hard during a breakfast too. And it's a little heavier then when I first arrived, because I dropped into the bathroom and while I spent a long time blow-drying pages, it's just different.
But it still reads well, so it is discharged in the maps of the city still read about the purchase, the countryside, the roads less traveled. And I feel really get to know these roads, as this book has almost become my Bible. I read this book at work. I read in the press, during commercials, before I sleep. I dream of Argentina.
When I arrived in this guide was not thinking about the moment of inspiration. I just thought it would be fun to learn a little about a country that had never been. I had no intention of becoming an obsession. But he did. Fortunately, travel is a good thing to obsess about, it's good to plan and save, if you're planning a trip to Argentina and not think twice about investing in this wonderful guide. You'll be glad you did. I think anyway.
This review is from: Argentina (Country Guide) (Paperback) Customer review from the Amazon Vine ™ Program (What's this?) Lonely Planet guides belong in the backpack of every backpacker, any traveler's suitcase, library every armchair travelers, offering travelers of all persuasions, the real supply and aspirants, accurate and thorough information in an easy to find and not read like they were written by someone who not creative writing. Not only give you the information you need to find what you're looking for, but what makes it interesting.
'm Twenty something Lonely Planet and I was perhaps a third of the places they represent. I've been to Argentina, but only as part of a tour of two weeks duration that included South Africa and Brazil. I spent a day in Buenos Aires and a day watching gauchos ride and rope. I did not see any of the real Argentina. That was two years ago.
Two weeks ago I received this guide, along with the Lonely Planet guide to Italy, and I devoured the two, marked with a yellow highlighter, folded page corners, is seen in several pages, enjoy the hell of them.
If you travel to Argentina, knowing a little about their culture, their history, their past will not only a more informed traveler, but will help to ingratiate himself to the people you might encounter on the road. As one who comes out of his way to meet new people, I think a little help learning languages too. If you make an effort, and Lonely Planet guides, undoubtedly will help with that, you'd be surprised how many people will find they are the way to ensure you enjoy your country and have a lot of wonderful memories to carry home with you.
I know, I spent last summer in France and although a modern and developed country, which is poured over the Lonely Planet Guide to France before I left and I spent three months studying French with the course of the Rosetta Stone Language. A lot of Americans I met there complained about the ugly French, how Americans do not want to know, how are avoided like the plague. I have not found anything like that. In fact I found a country full of friendly people and made some good friends there and I must say that I owe much to the people at Lonely Planet, and thanks to Lonely Planet the next time you go to Argentina, I'll be ready.
