Vanuatu & New Caledonia 7 (Lonely Planet Travel Guide) Paperback – November 28, 2012

The book was quiet full of useful information The items were scattered so you had to look for information requiredIt covered all islands I will be travelling toThe language was solved by loading an App (myLanguage)

One of the less charming and well written of the Lonely Planet series, of which I am a great fan.

Visited Vanuatu & New Caledonia on a South Pacific cruise in Oct 2014 & found this book to be a mine of information when deciding what to do during our time in the region

Eventually found the info I needed, but really hard work. Terrible layout and very poor index. Lumps of information about one place (Port Vila) scattered through a number of different chapters and subheadings e.g. Restaurants in 3 different places.Clearly no thought whatsoever went into translating this from paper to Kindle.

Spent a week in Vanuatu The guide had some decent standard information, like any adequate guide, but it was clearly beneath the usual Lonely Planet guide standard. There was not a lot of really in depth information. Did not go to New Caledonia so cannot comment on that section.

The real test will be when we get to Vanuatu in about 5 weeks. Mean time, it's helped with bookings and given us a fair idea of what to do and where to stay.

Good summary of all the info I needed. Very useful to get a handle on the local area and things to look out for. Very useful.

Not terribly helpful, but better than anything else I found.
