Wild orangutans swing through jungle canopies, Irrawaddy dolphins play in the shimmering waters of the South China Sea and saltwater crocs watch boats gliding down the river in search of Dayak longhouses. Daniel Robinson, Lonely Planet Writer

Much Worse Than Before
By Laszlo Wagner
This book is a big step BACKWARDS by Lonely Planet.
Compared to the former edition content has been cut back seriously, and the chapter covering Kalimantan (Indonesian Borneo, which covers 73% of the island) is so slim it is now closely useless. The entire huge province of West Kalimantan has been altogether omitted from this edition, never mind that it has, amongst other things, the only land crossing among Malaysian and Indonesian Borneo. The coverage of the remaining three Kalimantan provinces is also so poor that you are much better off getting the Kalimantan chapter of LP's popular Indonesia guide.
As for Malaysian Borneo, I guess the guide is OK, it covers all the touristy spots already covered in Lonely Planet's Malaysia Singapore & Brunei guide, but no more.

My go to guide
By Reanna
I am a big fan on Lonely Planet because they have never steered me wrong. I genuinely receive pleasure from the layout of this guide. It give straightforward counsel and a potpourri of pricing selections for eating and housing. I am using this as my main reference for planning my upcoming trip
