Customer Reviews

No surprise!

The Insight Guides have been unfailingly helpful. Not only complete and well researched, this is a delight for the eyes and the mind.

Great Beginning for a South American Adventure

Before my trip to Ecuador, (my first time to South America) I read the Insight Guide to Ecuador. The book gave me a very good background on the history of the country, the terrain, the weather, and most of all the people. The book did not overload you with facts and statistics, but made for a very nice, enjoyable read. The photographs in the book were spectacular.

If You`re Going to Ecuador...

This book was very informative not only on the culture itself, but on the history behind the country and the people. I found this book very helpful in learning more about the country. Although it isn`t very informative as the ¨Fodor`s¨ travel books or other travel guides, it gives a great overview of the entire country. My only complaint is some of the wording in the book--it tended to be sarcastic at times.
