Product Description
Dive into world-class aquatic adventures with whale sharks, damselfish and barracuda in the clearer-than-crystal waters of the Bay Islands, p. 237. Paddle dugout canoe through Central America's largest remaining strand of rainforest in the verdant depths of La Moskitia, p. 277. Revel in the mysterious rise and fall of the Maya as you explore the pyramids and sculptures of the Copan ruins, p. 146. Discover how a simple soccer game brought a country to war's dark door, p.35. 1232 hours of research (by plane, boat and bus), 30 maps, two very tired Lonely Planet authors. An Outdoor activities chapter gets your pulse pumping while unparalleled history coverage reveals Honduras' past. Our first edition of Honduras pushes you to go beyond its pages and create your own do-it-yourself adventure--truly the guidebook of the future.

 Just O.K. September 28, 2007

I read this book fairly through in trying to determine where and what to do Honduras. Afterwards I ordered the Moon handbook of Honduras and was much more impressed with the maps, detailed descriptions and the quantity of information. Just the better book period.
 Not what I expected! Too generic, not much information! September 3, 2008

This book is a big disappointment. I thought it would be filled with maps and diagrams of the places discussed. Nope. Just a couple of very basic maps and I do mean basic. Much of the information appears to be out-of-date and there are many omissions in the Roatan section so I am guessing the same goes for the rest of the book. The parts that I did read were so boring and generic that I really couldn't get more than a few pages in each section. Yeah, it has some nice color photos in the front of the book. But I could have gotten that elsewhere. BIG disappointment.

This is one of the few books solely on Honduras and their coverage of all aspects of travel there is excellent. Specifics such as language help, money, health, and transportation are well defined. Plus a good read for history.

As you would expect a Lonely Planet guide to be, this book is thorough and complete with gorgeous color photos and many maps. We are headed to Honduras via Roatan on February 17th and will be taking this book along! I purchased it to give as a gift but I couldn't help sneaking peaks in it before I wrapped it!
