 | How refreshing Feb 6, 2009 |
| What a nice change to read a guide to anywhere in the Caribbean written by somebody who's actually lived there. Most are written by people who, if they'be been there at all, have done so on a flying visit organised by a travel agent. Chris has managed to bring in a great, up-to-date guide, with lots of little gems of information, including some which were new to me. Good (and accurate) historical information and maps add even more. Nice to see Barbuda covered as well. With an expanded accommodation and dining section, this would get a five star rating from me. | | |  | Great book Dec 5, 2008 |
I have been to Antigua twice and this book really covers all the great places to go. Next time we go back, we are excited to try some new places that the book covers. It gave us a great perspective coming from someone who lived on the island.
It was a really easy read and much more enjoyable than most travel guides. I am looking forward to going back to the island and using this island guide. | | | | A must read for anyone planning a trip to Antigua Dec 1, 2008 |
Chris Beale has outlined a comprehensive overview for the first time visitor in his "Antigua and Barbuda: Island Guide"
He's outlined more than just the 365 beaches of soft smooth white sand with crystal clear warm water. He covers everything from shopping, boating, canopy tours, horseback riding and many activities that are of interest for those going away for more than just the sun. Antigua is a small siland but has something for everyone and Chris has captured it all in this pocket sized must have book.
Although I have enjoyed many vacations over the years and also lived in Antigua I learned a thing or two from this up to date guide. Antigua doesn't stand still and Chris's book is the most current information and a must to take along even if it isn't your first visit. | | | | This Antigua book is a great read with lots of useful info! Oct 28, 2008 |
I have purchased many Guides prior to making trips. I often find the information is the same in each book. It's easy finding restaurant names and hotel information along with pictures. But I have found recently that I can get all this information on the internet at no charge anyway.
THIS BOOK is different. It details lots of useful information in a different way. Sure...you will find out about hotels, restaurants, tours, and places of interest...but you will get much more....
I have a great feel for the island itself....including beaches, towns, and places of interest. The detail is thorough. Best of all....there are some great maps in the book to lead you on your journey should you decide to venture from your hotel. The book is also layed out nicely describing different parts of the island distances, etc.
I highly recommend this book should you be taking a trip to Antigua or Barbuda. | | | | A Refreshing Addition to the Travel Guide Section At Your Local Bookseller Oct 28, 2008 |
| I have lived and worked in Antigua for over 20 years. Most of the travel guides out there are outdated or written by folks who are using outdated materials. Christopher Beale lived and worked on island sampling local cuisine, swimming in the many beaches, hiking the trails and immersing himself in the local "scene". His guide offers a local perspective on dining and living. He adds some fascinating facts that I never knew. It's a casual low key guide perfect for all types of travelers. It's concise and thorough without being dull. | | | Write your own review about Antigua and Barbuda: Island Guide
