I've used many of the Lonely Planet Guides on many of our travels, and this book is no exception to their other high quality books; the book provides background, advice and everything else you would expect from an LPG. Recent improvements have included better maps, more colour photos and a list of possible routes and top things to see. Very helpful for people that aren't planning to stay more that a couple of weeks.
The major problem with this book - and its really a problem with books in general, rather than the LPG, is that the prices in it are completely out of date; with the boom in oil prices, the fall in the dollar and the recent troubles in the country the amounts quoted for many things are very inaccurate. Overall a great book for a trip to Kenya, but use the internet before hand to get better pricing information.

Although I am an experienced traveller, I always ensure that I bring along a copy of the Lonely Planet guide. Not only does it give me a flavour for the country I am to visit, but the guides are packed full of excellent tips from those who know the area. A Lonely Planet guide pays for itself - it is one of the essentials in my travel kit.

This book was somewhat helpful when I recently spent two months in Kenya, but I found that some of the information was out of date (despite this being an updated edition) and there were many things that should have been mentioned that were not. Although it gives a great overview, for those who are going to be spending a substantial amount of time in Kenya, I would probably opt for the Rough Guide to Kenya, which was more thorough and much more accurate.

I used this book while living in Nairobi for 3 months. It was especially helpful for planning my excursions around the country. My Kenyan friends couldn't believe how helpful it was. They didn't even know where to get the kind of information the book provides. I wouldn't travel to Kenya without it!
