- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Got the job done, I guess. Sort of uninspired. (Much like this review, you say? Oh, you!) I do find that for places like Japan and Turkey Lonely Planet is good at providing cultural information and treating them like places with history, whereas for Africa there's a lot of the "safari park fallacy."
