The people at the
offbeat Lonely Planet website are not your typical travel guides -- they're very
bright and know what they're talking about. Their goal is not to "sell the
country" to travelers. Instead, they tell it how it is. Typical headings
include: "Warnings" (in case travel is not recommended - the "why's"); Facts for
the Traveler, When to Go, Events, Money and Costs, Attractions, Off the Beaten
Track, Activities, History, Culture, Environment, Getting There and Away,
Getting Around, and Further Reading and Related Weblinks.
