Summary: Very complete and accurate
Comment: As a stranger who settled in Venezuela some months ago for labour, I chose this book in order to know more about my ¨new home country¨. I must confess it surprised me in how accurate each and every place of the country is described. Even the traditional little bullring four blocks from my flat is depicted with pretty detail and a touch of history. As I'm becoming more familiar with tourist places -particularly beaches and coasts- I found myself as if I were there already.

Summary: Insight Guides- Venezuela - 3rd
Comment: As an American married to a Venezuelan and living in Venezuela I also whole heartedly recommend this book since it is extremely up to date. I have been using books of this sort to travel the world for some time now and take most of their information with a grain of salt. They may or may not be accurate. That's not the case with this one. You can just about count on things to be as described or very, very close. At this point in time, it's as close to perfect as guidebooks get.

Summary: The best guide to Venezuela
Comment: As a Venezuelan living in the US, I've been curious about the way my country is portrayed in tourist books. After having read the 20 or so books available, this one is, in my opinion, the best of the lot and the only one that portrays Venezuela as it really is.

I've found other books and tourist guides to be painfully outdated or irresponsibly inaccurate, but when I read the first edition of Insight Guides Venezuela, I thought: "This is the first book I have found that captures the spirit of Venezuela and its people, that tells it like it is." I can remember the way baseball games, beauty contests, night life, etc., are described. It is all true, and then some...

The writers managed to also accurately describe Venezuelan cities and towns, their different peoples and environments. This book won't try to tell you where to stay in Caracas for $5 a day -practically impossible unless you are very brave and stupid-, but if you plan to go to Venezuela or if you've been there and want to remember it, this is the book to buy. Recommended wholeheartedly.
