Book Reviews of Lonely Planet Corsica (Regional Guide)

Book Review: A Guide for Outdoor Enthusiasts
Summary: 3 Stars

A light-weight travel guide, handy for traveling and more targeted to outdoor enthusiasts. This guide lists numerous campsites, budget and mid-range hotels and contains a good diving and rock-climbing section. Also features a day-by-day description of the GR20 trail and other famous hikes.

Includes a concise and thorough Getting Started guide, pre-planning information, itineraries, transportation, tips for those traveling with children and a language guide.

Maps are a hard to read though. Thankfully the free Corsica maps provided by the local Tourist Offices in Corsica are usually all you need to get around. This guide also contains non-travel bits of anecdote and trivia that the average traveler may not find particularly useful though I find them fascinating.

The lack of colors makes it difficult to read. To compensate for that, I recommend the Corsica Eyewitness Travel Guide as well.
