    • Lonely Planet Reiseführer Mexiko

      • 980 pages
      • 35 hours of reading

      Eingeführte Reihe (zuletzt ID-A 8/19). Nach einer umfangreichen Einführung mit Top-Attraktionen, Vorschläge für Reiserouten und Tipps für die Reiseplanung folgen 11 Kapitel mit Beschreibungen der einzelnen Regionen des Landes. Zum Abschluss folgen ein landeskundliches Kapitel sowie reisepraktische Tipps. Reihenüblich locker und unverblümt geschrieben, mit nur wenigen Fotos, dünnem Papier und kleiner Schrift, ist das Handbuch wegen seiner Unmengen von Adressen vor allem für Individualreisende eine Fundgrube. Das Buch wurde von einem 11-köpfigen Team umfassend aktualisiert und aus dem engl. übersetzt. Mexiko wurde schwer von der Corona-Pandemie getroffen, so dass es wenige neue Führer aufgelegt wurden. Deshalb als aktueller Führer neben dem Vis-a-Vis (zur Besprechung vorgesehen), J. Bergmann (Nelles; ID-A 12/20) und J. Israel (Reise-Taschenbuch; ID-A 42/22), das mit Yucatan nur einen Teil des grossen Landes abdeckt, empfohlen. Die Vorauflage kann verbraucht werden, ältere Ausgaben sollten ersetzt werden. (2)
