Summary: A good second book
Comment: A friend and I travelled in Yucatan last year with this book and the Lonely Planet "Ruta Maya" guide. LP was better for the basic information and town maps but the Adventure Guide had waaaaay more detail on little places that turned out to be a real treat. We would never have gone swimming in the Cenote at Motul with LP, or had about the best meal of our whole stay at the palapa restaurant above -- the town isn't even on the map in LP. No one book can do everything for you, but this one combined with another, such as LP or Rough Guides Mexico, will really help you get around. I'm looking forward to their new edition.

Summary: Great all around tour book about Yucatan
Comment: This is a great all around tour book of the Yucatan but I would not call it an adventure book. It has the usual tour information of the Fodor's and Frommer's style with only a few actual "adventures" mentioned. The biggest flaw to this book is that sites and museums opening/closing times as well as prices are sometimes omitted or out-of-date. However, the helpful hints, humor, and narative qualities do make an enjoyable read and worth buying if you plan to visit the area. Not many pictures are included and they are all black & white.

Summary: Very Useful--And a Good Read!
Comment: I have taken several trips to the Yucatan, and I found this book to be accurate, up-to-date and an all-around good read! I must say, however, that, although it provides quite a bit of information on "adventure travel," it is more of an all-around guidebook (the authors make it clear that they want to provide information for those travelers who may be making their first visit and for whom just being in the Yucatan is an adventure).
