Overall it was a useful guide to have, but I did get irritated by Lonely Planet's slightly sneering attitude towards 'tourists'. We can't all take months off and go backpacking into untrodden parts - most of us have to squeeze our travels into two week holidays, and, yes, we want to see the best that a country has to offer in that time. That doesn't make us all plebs who only want to take a selfie then go and find KFC and chips. I lost count of the number of times I read 'avoid the tourists', or 'if you can bear the tourists' etc. A backpacker with a beard is just as much of a tourist as an old lady in a coach party and they all need a helpful guidebook!
