5-0 out of 5 stars Best information for trip to the Dominican Republic
After a short visit to the D. R., I ordered this book in anticipation of my next trip there.I was surprised and pleased with the detailed information.

4-0 out of 5 stars Complete, informative and useful
All that you would expect from a Lonely Planet Guide.Well worth buying for making a trip to the Dominican Republic.It will enable you to chose a resort to suite your taste, and to visit places that interest you.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great insight for the off-the-beaten-path traveler
Go beyond the all-inclusive resorts to see the 'real' Santo Domingo and let the experts handle the logistics so you can experience the warmth of the Haitian people.Great resource, great research, well-done and easy to navigate. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars really detailed, good social commentary
I am about to leave to study abroad in Santo Domingo, the capital of the Dominican Republic. I bought this book, as well as the Lonely Planet guide. I think the Rough Guide is far superior to the Lonely Planet one.
2-0 out of 5 stars Interesting but unnecessarily negative
I recently travelled to the Dominican Republic and purchased this guide for my trip based on the online reviews.
4-0 out of 5 stars very useful guide
I used this guide to travel in Santo Domingo, Costanza and Samana and found it to be very useful in trip planning.First of all, it helped me to identify Samana and Constanza as great places to visit without the heavy tourism.It was also packed with information on practically every town we passed on the way and offered good hotel and restaurant recommendations.My only criticism is that it seemed the author probably traveled by car and the information on public transportation wasn't quite as thorough as in Lonely Planet guides.However, the sheer volume of other information and the easy to use layout made up for that.Overall, a very solid guide for both pre-trip planning and travel within the DR. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Great find!
I have not purchased a map in a while.I am beyond myself impressed with the quality of this product!It has a smooth finish which makes me think I will be able to hang onto it for a very long time-I think it will last beyond my lifetime.

4-0 out of 5 stars Good map, no inserts
This is a decent map of the DR - quite detailed and easy to read. It feels a lot more like paper than a laminated map would, so I'm hoping it will be as rip-proof as it says it is.

3-0 out of 5 stars Basically basic overview of the DR
This booklet has all the basic travel facts for the Dominican Republic. That's --well-- basically it. Its main advantages are succinctness and portability; not information on the DR.

4-0 out of 5 stars Good guide, but ...
The Frommer's Dominican Republic guide is a good guide for anyone making a quick trip to the DR. The book does overexaggerates on the crime issue. Crime in the DR is relatively low, maybe even lower than in the USA. Other than that, the book is excellent. ... Read more

2-0 out of 5 stars Elementary school level
I ordered this book because I thought it would provide an introduction to the politics of the Dominican Republic. When I got it, it reminded me more of a mixture between a tacky guidebook and an elementary school social science book. It does present some insight into the historical, economical and political conditions of the country, some of them even differing from the mainstream image, but it is all very limited in scope and not very useful. If you want a guidebook, I'd suggest Lonely Planet a million times before this one. When it comes to a political review of the country, I have unfortunately had difficulties in finding one. But surfing the web for a couple of hours will certainly provide more useful information than a copy of this book.

5-0 out of 5 stars Facinating
This book is a much needed new insight on Dominican Republic where I travelled a lot a few years ago.It is very interesting situation with haiti and the author adresses cultural issues sensitively butinformatively.The book is very easily to read and has a good order.

3-0 out of 5 stars Summary
This book has dealt well with subjects like the economy, politics, and local places to visit.Unfortunately, I found the information on the history and cultural identity of the Dominicans to be lacking information.For example, When Howard spoke too briefly of the Taino Indiansor howthe Dominicans have a need to be more "Indian". He was totallyincorrect.The author does not hold a strong enough argument or facts tosupport this. He leaves the reader with much confusion about the Dominicanidentity. ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars Is Lonely Planet Slipping
I have been a great fan of the Lonely Planet guides for years and have used them in Central America and Australia and places that I have just dreamed of going. But this one seems to be written by people who were just afraid to travel or only spent a week here. I have lived in the DR for two years now and once lived in Haiti. Sorry ' LP' I think perhaps your reporters are getting a bit soft. Where is my beloved guide to the world of toilet-seats-optional hotels. This one even rates some of the VERY pricey all inclusive resorts that are just Cancun. My former LP guides would not even include these monsters. Yup -the Rough Guide is better.

3-0 out of 5 stars too much history, not enough helpful info
I am about to leave to study abroad in Santo Domingo, the capital of the Dominican Republic. I bought this book, as well as the Rough Guide to the DR. I think the Rough Guide is far superior to the Lonely Planet guide.
5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent Choice for a Travel Guide
This is a great travel guide. I had taken this book with me to DR on a road trip with my friends (who lives in DR). This guide had detailed maps and descriptions on hotels and which places to visit. overall a great book. always trust lonely planet. ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars A sorry excuse for a guide book
I have used this book as a guide while travelling around in the Dominican Republic by car. While I can fully recommend doing so, I would not recommend using this book as a your travel guide.5-0 out of 5 stars A book that makes you want to get up and go
I'm a confirmed armchair traveler who buys books about countries that interest me. I don't know if this guide is factually accurate (the other reviews seem to think so) but I do know that now I want to go to Hispaniola. This book has painted such an appealing picture that I feelcompelled to discover it all for myself. Isn't this what a good guidebookis all about?

5-0 out of 5 stars A Great Guide to Haiti
It was with some normal fear that I planned my first foreign trip, one going alone to Haiti for the first time.I found the contents of this book to be invaluable.From listing considerations on what to take, providingsuggestions on travel and great directions in the towns and villageslisted, I found this book to be very useful.I took it with me and it wasa constant reference.I also found the background and history section tobe both accurate and interesting.Thanks for helping make my trip asuccess. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars A Great Site & Car Rental Map
This is one of the best maps of the dominican republic I've ever seen. I am puerto rican and trust me when I say I've never even seen a detailed map of my island like this. Definitley bag for the buck! I highley recommend it.

5-0 out of 5 stars Durable, Informative Map of the Dominican Republic
Providing a durable and informative travel resource to travelers traveling to/throughout the Dominican Republic is a great map to have when planning a trip to this nation. Foldable and laminated, the map covers the nation's highway system with great detail, and provides the reader with insert maps of the tourist centers of both Santo Domingo and Puerto Plata.3-0 out of 5 stars High quality print, colorful and durable
This is an excellent map for travel between major cities, but if you want detail of particular cities: Santo Domingo outside of the touristy Zona Coloni�l or say, Hig�ey or San Pedro de Macor�s, forget it.It is a detailed account of the Dominican highway system, but not the map for in-town travel.To its credit, it does have limited street maps of the tourist central cities of Santo Domingo & Puerto Plata, but not of the business / industrial centers of Santiago de los 30 Caballeros, Hig�ey, La Romana, San Pedro de Macor�s, etc. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Fantastic primer on the history & culture of Haiti!
I bought this book, not as a travel guide, but as a "coffee-table book" about the country of Haiti.As such, it is FANTASTIC!Sure, there are some typos in this first edition, but the publisher specifically invites readers' contributions & corrections (p. 2) for future editions.The photos in this book are vivid, stunning depictions of life in Haiti and the Dominican Republic.There is an introductory section full of photos & illustrations that covers the history of both nations that comprise Hispaniola, followed by colorful, photo-filled sections on people, language, art, religion, cuisine, sports, flora & fauna, architecture, economy & agriculture, geography & demography by regions of each country (including a wide variety of detailed maps), sites to visit and sights to see. All this comprises the first 344 pages of this marvelous book!Only the last 48 pages are devoted to "Travel Tips" -- trip planning, transportation, places to stay, places to eat, tourist sites, shopping, festivals, excursions, and so forth.Indeed, this is NOT A TRAVEL GUIDE!BUT A MARVELOUS AND DEFINITIVE GUIDE TO THE RICH CULTURE, BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE, AND INTRIGUING HISTORY OF THE ISLAND OF HISPANIOLA it is!!

2-0 out of 5 stars A travel guide it is not...
If you are looking for backgrounder on the people, geography, and history of the Dominican Republic and Haiti, this book may fit your needs. As a general travel guide, it misses the mark badly.Read more

Cameron's approach beats the other guidebooks in its up to dateassessment of the country's politics and history as it relates to each of the regions you plan on visiting. Relevant sidebar info is sprinkled throughout the book to provide the reader with something other than the usual monotonous listings of hotels, restarants, and places to visit--though she knows her stuff here as well. This book is the most currently published of all the other titles out there. ... Read more
