Pros: compact with great photographs
Cons: too concise information |
This book Insight Guide Costa Rica by Paul Murphy is indeed an excellent one and I consider this book necessary for all those tourists, visitors who intend to visit Costa Rica. This book is beautifully presented and it features outstanding full-color photography which provides all the information you need to enjoy the rich heritage and spectacular scenery of Costa Rica.
The map provided with this book is very necessary if you are planning a trip to Costa Rica. This map has a detailed information about the entire country along with the travel distances so as to prepare you for the journey. |
The map also has a good "places" index where you can look up the names of towns, parks and beaches and find them on the map. If you are driving in Costa Rica, this map is a must.
Overall this book includes a section detailing Costa Rica's history, 8 features covering the country's life and culture, ranging from the spectacular plant life to the best coffee in the world. Plus 283 impressive photographs and 7 maps, including a National Parks and Reserves map. |
