Frommer's Caribbean 2008 (Frommer's Complete) 2 reviews Darwin Porter, Danforth Prince
Frommers, 2007
The Best traveler's companion
Of all the travel books, Frommer's are the best. The Caribbean 2008 is a solid book, the information is updated with a number of handy hints. The Caribbean, in general, offers fewer insights than larger countries one can travel so it does not get the highest rating.

I had used Lonely Planet on several trips where some of them were disappointing and not so much "guiding". Yet, this Cuba guide made our trip to visit the "real" Cuba our most memorable with sufficient information on each major and minor city.
From Havana to the far end of Baracoa, the guide has ...
