After the years to travel with the Lonely Planet, we looked for an alternative and followed a board Thorntree (LP forum): The Bradt on Ethiopia, Philip Brigg, the best on this country that we have found!
* A very easy to navigate, even for someone not knowing the Bradt Guides
* The "Highlights" RECOMMENDED possible to very easily arrange a trip, especially for those who, like us, lack of time. In fact, we would not visit the Danakil Deßpression if we had not read the Bradt and lacks one of the most remarkable parts of the world!
* The information on the country itself (history, culture, population, ...) are sought after and extremely well written, very easy to read even for non-English speakers.
* Finally, the selection of hotels and resaurants is very reliable and much larger / more interesting than that offered by other guides.
Finally, Philip Brigg offered a Must for anyone interesting in ethiopia.
And when we aprlons Ethiopia: a fascinating country to discover absolutely!
