Great tool for travel planning a quick trip to this region of England
I visited Oxford las month and this Pocket Guide was a great value. Sights and pubs reviews were spot on. One thing though: during graduation season, several sights are closed down for private events. Duke Humfrey's library and the Sheldonian Theater were unavailable during my trip. Maybe there's a note in the guide which I might have missed, but a heads-up on this would be nice.

I love the lonely Planet Guides, they are so useful when travelling. It Had all the Importamt information about the regions in Tasmania, so we could plan our Roadtrip without googling for hours. The Cape Raoul Track was beautiful, as Well as many other places recommended Here. The prices of the ferry etc. Are also helpful. Thank you!

Lonely Planet's New Zealand guidebook was an absolute game-changer for my trip. From rugged alpine adventures in the South Island to the vibrant cultural heart of Wellington, this book helped me uncover experiences I would’ve never found on my own. The recommendations felt curated, not generic, and the practical tips—from driving routes to hidden local gems—were spot on. I especially appreciated the cultural insights into Māori traditions, which made the trip feel even more meaningful. Whether you're a first-timer or a returning traveler, this guide is a must-have.
