| Customer Reviews: Good information April 3, 2009 J. A. Lindsay (Pacifica, CA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought 3 books before we went to Trinidad and they were all good in their own way. The trip was a surprise to my husband for our 22nd anniversary and definitely gave us lots of information and we felt prepared for anything we would find.
Best as an information source...NOT a guide June 27, 2007 Chad R. Wise (somerville, MA, United States) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
All in all I was disappointed with this book. I purchased it as a guide around T&T, but it's not very useful for that. It's a great source of information about Trinidad, as far as the history and culture, but don't waste your money if you're looking for a solid guidebook. The best book by far was the Rough Guide to T&T. I spent 9 days there and the Rough Guide was literally my Bible, I didn't go anywhere without it. If you're planning a trip and need a solid guide book for where to stay, where to go, and how to get around, don't purchase the Insight Guide. If you're into colorful pictures and historical information, this is the book for you.
Amazingly Helpful March 22, 2007 Aaron Lehman (Goshen, IN) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is simply the greatest informational book on T&T. Wonderful color pictures and descriptions. Spot-on!
Wonderful pictures and prose January 25, 2005 P. Persad (Texas) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I used to live in Trinidad and Tobago, and I can tell you ... this is the absolute best travel book on Trinidad. The folks at Insight Guides really do their homework on whatever country they're covering, and this is no exception. The pictures are amazing. Each section ... covering history, music, food, etc ... is well-researched and quite entertaining. They tell it like it is, good or bad.
I often read this book when I'm "homesick" for my expat life in Trinidad, and I feel as though I've taken a small vacation there.
