Summary: A little outdated but excellent
Comment: This small compact book carries a gigantic wallop. It is filled with information from cover to cover and is by far the best travel book on Colombia I have ever come across. Moreover, the introduction and historical narrative is simply outstanding. This book is a great travel companion and if used properly will unlock the beauty and treasures that Colombia has to offer.
Author Krzysztof Dydynski was born in Poland but lived in Colombia for four years and manages to capture the best and brightest features of the nation. The author is comprehensive and includes sketches, photos, maps and a first class index. The only downside of this valuable book is that it is a little outdated. The 1995 publication must be updated to warn of the many dangers of travel in Colombia today and to include new places of interest throughout the country. "Lonely Planet travel survival kit; Colombia," is worth every penny. It covers all the bases for any budget. I love this book.

Summary: Great tricks
Comment: I lived in Colombia for 13 year and recently went back for a 4 month trip. This book had lots of interesting out of the road tips and tricks to make the stay more enjoyable. Even my parents that have lived for over 40 years there learned a lot of it, specially the Zona Cafetera and Valle del Cauca. Some attractions are unknown even for locals.

Comment: I recently lived in Colombia for three years and the book was very helpful to know what sites to see in the different parts of the country. However most of the information was outdated.
