5 out of 5 stars Better, safer than 'blue' book   January 29, 2010

While visiting Kauai two visitors drowned -- I was grateful to have the LP guidebook instead of the blue book because it told us of the safer, off the beaten track places to go. Being there with my family, I was happy to know where not to trespass, which falls not to jump and where the true gems of the island are! Kudos and thanks, Lonely Planet!


5 out of 5 stars Excellent Kauai guide book   June 9, 2007

I'm just back from my first (and not my last) trip to Kauai. I bought 7 Kauai travel guide books to plan my trip (yes, I was overly excited). Of the 7, this and one other were head and shoulders above the rest. I strongly recommend it.


4 out of 5 stars Another Excellent Lonely Planet Book   March 6, 2010

We have used Lonely Planet Guides for years; and the Kauai Guide lives up to their excellent reputation. The information was accurate and relevant. The maps are not as user friendly as the Ultimate Kauai Guide The Ultimate Kauai Guidebook: Kauai Revealed but the information was better organized. We brought both books and bounced back and forth between them. We are adventurous and eco-conscious travelers and Lonely Planet better suited our needs on Kauai.


2 out of 5 stars Not as good as other lonely plaent books   September 30, 2007

This book is thin and not as well done as other lonely planet books. For a trip to Kaua'i, I'd recommend another publisher's travel book. I purchased this book along with "the blue book" on Kaua'i. I found the blue book to be much more comprehensive as well as more entertaining to read.


1 out of 5 stars Almost completely useless   January 9, 2007

Please relate to my comments on the other guidebook about Queensland.
Kauai Guidebook was not as deceiving as that one, may be because being so thin, we didn't expect very much from it, and... come on!!! Hawaii anyway!!
We got an address for a place to stay, the rest was decided either thanks to comments from colleagues who had been there already, or from the REAL guidebook series for Hawaii, the blue series. A colleague loaned it to us. At the beginning, being so used to Lonely Planet we thought we will sticked with it. Truth is we, never used it there, only the blue book which offers detailed descriptions, interesting comments and very useful maps.
