DK Eyewitness Travel Guides: Bali & Lombok (Eyewitness Travel Guides)

Rating:
Summary: Pictures great/Disappointing Info
Review: Biggest problem I had with this book is the lack of detail to the nightlife of Bali. This is a big party island and the few pages this book devotes to bars and clubs is completely inaccurate. The only two bars which were always packed and crazy were the Sari Club and Paddys (since destroyed by the blasts) and these were not even mentioned in the book. Instead it told us to go to the Bounty which had about 5 people on a saturday night. Pretty weak. Pictures are awesome though, gives you an idea of what to check out while you're on the island. My buddy had the Lonely Planet book and it was on point about everything.

Summary: Best Bet
Review: I love the beautiful photographs and (especially) the 3-D illustrations of villages and temples. If I were to write a guide book about Bali, it would look awfully similar to this one!
