I flew into Belize, took the bus up to Chetumal, Mexico on the border, then took the bus all the way down south into Guatemala (by boat). This book is ragged from me using it so much. Others borrowed it also. I wish it were a little more up to date.

I recently traveled through Central America and southern Mexico for two months and found this book absolutely invaluable. I don't know how I would have managed without it. It provides good information on everything, especially on how to get from point A to point B. Before leaving for my trip, I checked out a number of other guides, and none of them even came close to matching the usefulness of Lonely Planet. Almost all travelers in this region use Lonely Planet guides. I highly recommend this book.One other note: the Let's Go guide to Mexico is a joke.

Let's Go Central America is so bad that I wouldn't even recommend flipping through it.
