peru slightly under water
As one of the worlds most fasinating places, both from a human and natural perspective, this book falls short relative to providing a full view of Peru's incredable wonders, seek another source if you are looking for an informative guide or historic perspective. the material and facts are well provided and fairly well organized,but
the country deserves better then this.

Great book
I have a tour operator in Peru, [. . ] I meet the writer, Rob Rachowiecki, he is a great explorer and he was a tour leader in Peru andean areas.

This book is very help full not only for foreing people, also for peruvians ones, many times when I go to a specific areas and I does not have enught info. . I open my travel survival kit and read for some extra info and many times I sent updates that I see have been taken in next edition. . . just one word. . . BUY THE BOOK, it's a good help to do not be lost in Peru.

Take the advice!
The country overview was insightful, the restaurant recommendations were tastey, and the advice about altitude sickness was ignored. I found the LP Peru guide to be a useful tool on my recent trip to Lima, Cuzco and Machu Pichu. Big mistake. I've never paid attention to LP's health warnings and never had a problem. If you're heading to Cuzco, you'd be well advised to listen to their experienced writers and bring the necessary medicine.
