As ever, another fantastic Lonely Planet publication. My only qualm is that the pull-out map is for Vancouver rather than Toronto, the city which I visited, but there is so much information here, and so many recommendations of places to visit. I will definitely look forward to reading it again on future trips to Canada.

Just doing some armchair travel during the yet another COVID surge to keep myself from going stir-crazy.

I'm not sure how useful this would be during a real trip, but it looked pretty well organized. It does lean heavily into outdoor activities and the usual touristy attractions. It's heavy on camping, seeing moose (mooses?), staying at "luxurious" lodgings, and eating at "famed" restaurants, and fairly light on arts, culture, and hidden gems. That's pretty much the norm for travel guides, though. If you read the one for where I live, you'd think there's six things to do in the entire state and maybe three decent restaurants.

It was a nice guide book - I would have liked one central pull out map or visual aides. I did like the detail of pricing and both famous & lesser known places to visit.

I love Lonely Planet travel books. Great way to work out the not to miss sights before deep diving the internet.

Embora não foque muito na parte selvagem, auxilia a quem pretende conhecer um pouco de tudo neste imenso país.

Chock full of great information in this very large travel guide!! I'm actually reading a newer edition than the one shown (15th).

Love all the recommendations for vegan restaurants! (And by "all" I mean three, but it's three more than I found in any other travel guide!)

Muss sagen dass die vorherige Ausgabe viel detaillierter und brauchbarer ist als die aktuelle. Bisschen enttäuschend von lonely planet

I did not find that this guide did Canada justice. Maybe due to the fact that I am from Canada and have been fortunate enough to have traveled across the entire country I was hoping for more. Mind you, I did not use this book as a traveler. An Australian friend of mine asked me to look at his copy and tell me whether it was worth while having on his cross-Canada road trip.

Lonely Planet Guides are the best! I've used them for my own out-of-country travels and thought I'd see what they had to say about my own. The contributors did an excellent job! In fact, they gave a few recommendations that made me inwardly cringe: "Don't tell everyone! Think of the lines!"
I came away with fresh inspiration to explore my own backyard this year.

Surprised to see how much space some provinces received and how little others. Considering how little time we spent in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba, it seems odd that we managed to hit most of the points listed in these chapters. There has to be more to these places besides parks and thunderstorms.

i only got this because i needed the section on montreal. although i understand the guide is about canada as a whole and not just montreal or quebec, but it let me down. i still recommend lonely planet guides.

It's new (as I write) and seems an improvement over the last Lonely Planet guide I purchased on Canada back in 1996. I'm not sure about the addition of colour to the product. When I have had a more comprehensive read of the guide I'll let you know how it stacks up.

I think I read an earlier version, but this book totally saved my tail when I ventured too far north a few summers ago.

Lonely Planet Books are indispensable, I just wish they were better at referencing the map in the text, and the page ref from the map key.

As usual with Lonely Planet, this guide gives you all the information you need if you want to travel around in Canada. Or if you trying to find the motivation to do so. (DO IT)

When have you read a travel guide?
I planed our summer trip with this one and have the feeling to know everything there is to know. We will see in summer if that is so.

This is a great companion to take along on a vacation. It provides information on towns and cities right across Canada including popular restaurants, parks, museums, landmarks and hotels.
