The book does a nice job with breaking out the various destinations and gives a lot of helpful hints. The book also has a lot of space on what not to eat, how to drive, how to get around and other helpful tips. There is so much information to cover, the book could stand to be a little longer.

It has a lot about the big places, but nothing about those little places that you just have to find yourself.

After spending ten days in the Yucatan I found this guide to be the most helpful of the three guides I took with me. This is due to the fact that this is a very new publication (fresh off the press!). Lots of good info on what to do and see and where to eat. Made my trip even more memorable then it would have been anyway. The Yucatan is a great vacation adventure, which I highly recommend! I also check out "A Tourist in the Yucatan" great thriller that has become an underground Hit!
Good book

Fodor's Cancun, Cozumel, and Yucatan Peninsula 2000

Like the other Fodor's guides that I've used in my travels, this book is phenomenal. From the hotels to restaurants to side trips, this book points out the bests of the Yucatan Peninsula.I've been to Cancun three times (most recently in February 2000) and can attest that the 2000 version is right on the money.I highly recommend this book for the first time visitor as it will give you great ideas for any length of visit. A also recommend it for those who have been to the region before as the book will recommend those areas that the first time visitors generally don't get to. The thing that is so helpful about the guid is that it helps you prioritize the things that you want to do.
