Customer Reviews

Practical

The guide is full of practical details (costs, transport...) and usually has a larger listing of budget accomodation than other budget-oriented guides, but has few (or even nothing in some localities) backgound information. Its a great guide but I would recommend to buy it along with rough guide, which will give you the history and background that let's go doesn't have.

cannot be beaten

Lets go sets the pace in the market of travel guides of China.
