Reader Reviews
I have visited Thailand nearly every year for the past six years. I find Insight Guide Thailand to be informative, accurate, easy to navigate around and a pleasure to use, with beautiful photography. It contains fairly in-depth reviews of Thai history, religion and culture. Cross-references to map locations of sights of interest are really handy. I feel the Insight Guides outclass Lonely Planet Guides and are much more user-friendly. I would not travel without my Insight Guides! I also find Insight Guide Philippines to be outstanding.
