1 out of 5 stars Not worth buying   July 5, 2001
 8 out of 9 found this review helpful

This book has a huge number of errors, both in the information in provides and in the printing. There are numerous spelling mistakes and most of the detail is so negative I'm suprised they bothered to write it. Major attractions (eg Johannesburg Botanical Gardens) are left out, and visitors are discouraged from seeing many attractions/areas, classed as being 'too white' by the authors.

I cannot understand why this guide is topping the South African list. This must be one of the worst researched books ever written. IT IS OUT OF DATE! Too many places mentioned have closed down 3 years or more before printing. An unacceptably high number of telephone numbers are wrong. Advice given is quite out of date - this can be costly in Africa! This guide is badly rated by just about anyone that have used it. Of an estimated 600 or more pax that i have met that have used this ancient "bible" about 5% said it was OK, the rest hated it. I cannot recall 1 person saying that they have found it useful. I would seriously recommend that anyone contemplating buying this online first compare this with other travel books available. Pick a couple of things that interests you and compare the different guide books. Not Recommended at all.
