Customer Reviews

Best Book about Las Vegas IMO.

I am with one of the Poster,s that The LP Travel Books is the best Travel Books written nowadays. What I like best is the Road Maps at the end of this book for those who go to Las Vegas by Motor Vehicle.

a very good guide

I've always preferred Lonely Planet guides when I travel. I wasn't disappointed with the new LP Las Vegas guide. It gives you pretty much all the information you need for a good vacation in Vegas. Best of all, it's a nice portable size. I was able to keep it in my purse the whole time and whip it out at a moment's notice. Despite the good coverage of information in this guide, it doesn't go as in depth as the Frommer's guide, which is probably a better guide for planning your vacation before you leave, while the LP guide is good for traveling around the city.

Best of the Bunch

Doggett's Las Vegas is the best travel guide for planning a trip to this desert mecca. It is informative and easy reading. I used it to plan a family reunion in Vegas and the book was more than helpful. We even carried it as a guide throughout the trip. What I liked best about this book is not having to read pages and pages of useless information before finding what you need. It was to the point and accurate. Vegas attractions change on a daily basis and this book kept up with them. It is by far the best of the bunch in Vegas guides. I highly recommend it for anyone planning a trip to Vegas or just looking to read about this fascinating city.

Exellent book

I am a fan of Lonely Planet books for last 4 years. This was my first trip to Las Vegas and with help of this book it was more enjoyable and I could plan better about visiting Grand Canyon and few other places. Maps are very helpful. Eventhough things keep changing in LV 24/7/365, the reviews about casinos, and shows are very informative. You could just read the book over and over again.

Best guidebook I've ever read.

Heck, it's the ONLY guidebook I've ever read from cover to cover. I go to Vegas a lot and thought I knew the place, but there are sooo many places and things about Vegas I didn't know of that this guidebook describes. And the book is hysterically funny. I just kept on reading it. It's addictive. Sometimes I pick it up and read parts of it for a second or third time. The book is full of good information and it's a total crack up. It's a really good thing to read on a plane on your way to Vegas. You land with a new appreciation for the place and in a really good mood.
