3A new format and its not good
By Josh
Lonely Planet has changed their format a bit and added lots of gimmicks such as more photos, along with highlights and when to go, etc.... But sadly they have really skimped on the things we really want to know - hotels, restaurants, sites, safari companies and transportation. I think I will have to opt for the Rough Guide instead.

4Mzuri Sana! = Very good!
By Melisa Siegel
As usual Lonely Planet hits the mark with accurate info delivered in humorous ways. I used the Kindle Fire version which was easy to navigate, and even the maps were helpful.
