Swill a scoopful of chicha - saliva-fermented corn beer - to earn the respect of the locals. Descend into the narrow, hallucinatory underground chambers of the millennia-old ruins at Chavin de Huantar.
In This Guide:
Three authors, 144 days of on-the-road research via planes, riverboats, and dozens of death-defying bus rides. Dedicated Peru Outdoors chapter, plus expanded activities coverage throughout.

so wrong about cusco September 26, 2008 my wife and i spent 4 days in cusco and could not find a single restaurant that lonely planet recommended. my wife is fluent in spanish and we spoke with locals and touristico police and NOBODY had even heard of the restaurants. very frustrating.
and cusco sucks, don't waste time there. arequipa is a million times better.
Great guide for Peru July 11, 2008 I bought this book for my daughter. She is in Peru, and brought the book with her to use as a guide for everything. I read it first, and it was a great book, it tells you just about everything you need to know, and bring when you travel to Peru. I highly recommend this book,it is one of the best books on Peru!

The book was exactly as I expected and was in excellent condition. It arrived in a very timely manner.
Just as represented March 16, 2008 Great book, very in depth. Perfect for my trip in 6 weeks! Can't wait for the Bolivia book to arrive.

I am not a huge fan of Lonely Planet Guides like everyone else is...I much prefer Rough Guides. That said, this LP is much more up-to-date than Rough Guide Peru. It's helpful and gives you the facts, but I find the tone and attitude of the authors to be too jaded for my tastes. They seem to like being alternative for the sake of being alternative. I hope Rough Guide comes out with an update before my trip. Otherwise I'll be taking my Moon Guide, which I've found very helpful and upbeat.
