Do not buy this guide
It had virtually no useful information about places I visited and its recommendations on hotels and restaurants were often off the mark. I am very disappointed with this guide. The contact information for hotels was outdated in many cases.
Typically I am very satisfied with Lonely Planet guides, however this one is not up to their usual standard.
I would recommend Independent Travelers Greek Island Hopping instead if you plan to spend any time on Greek islands.

Dependable
We like the Lonely Planet guide for its format and size, the hotel suggestions and the easy maps with the most important things to see and to do on it. Since 12 years we always buy Lonely Planet guides for everywhere we travel. What we miss are fine dining suggestions.

Excellent guide to Greece!
It is as up-to-date as you can reasonably expect with changing prices and euro/dollar fluctuations. I spend a month every summer in Greece, and this guide is excellent! It is concise, reads very easily, and gives good common-sense recommendations on what to see and where to stay. A very, very practical guide from the budget tourist to middle class. Excellent pictures, very good maps, a fine job! It reminds me, in a way, of the Michelin guides to Europe. .
