 Indispenisble May 22, 2008

This thing saved my butt last year.
I took a trip to Boston, and drove from Boston to Inverness, Nova Scotia on Cape Breton Island.
I went the scenic route, cutting through Maine to Calais / St Stephen, where I crossed the border into New Brunswick.
I had an atlas, I had maps, I had been studying maps of the entire Eastern seaboard for months and months. This was a solo journey so I wanted to be prepared. I decided to get the Lonely Planet guide on a whim. I figured I couldn't have too much information!
The thing about the Maritime Provinces that outsiders don't know, is that it's nearly impossible to get any good information on them from the conventional sources (internet, etc). Enter Lonely Planet guides.
The biggest way this book helped me was when I was in Saint John, NB which is where I stayed overnight between Boston and Cape Breton.
First of all, Saint John was surprisingly cute. I wish I would have had more time there. Secondly and more importantly, on the way through to CB, I stayed at a slightly crappy motel just outside of town which while not terrible, was not fantastic and I didn't feel entirely safe (just paranoia I think, but still...) That motel was NOT listed in the book, FYI. So on the way back, I decided to look elsewhere - in my book! Lo and behold, I find in the book the contact info for the summer dorm rental program at the University. Why yes, I'll gladly shell out $20 for a safe, clean room! I just needed a place to sleep after all, and it was perfect.
The book also gave me some great info on tiny little St Stephen, where I had a few minutes to stop before crossing the border, and I hit a chocolate shop recommended in the book. Divine. Wouldn't have had a clue without my guide book.
I'm quite sure my journey would have been entirely different, and less enjoyable without this thing.
Lonely Planet books are priceless. Get one.

 A good guide to carry along with you Oct 01, 2007
By B. Murphy
We used this during our trip and enjoyed it a lot, most especially their restaurant recommendations. Their choices in Halifax and Charlottetown were right on. Their B&B recommendations were good too. I recommend carrying this with you on your trip.

This will be the book I take on our vacation Feb 28, 2011
By S. Johnson
I ordered 2 tour books on Nova Scotia from Amazon for a trip my husband and I are planning in April. The other book was Fodor's Nova Scotia. I have read both books from cover to cover and decided the Lonely Planet book on Nova Scotia will be the more useful one to take with us, along with the book and map from AAA that I got (for free) on the Maritime Provinces of Canada.

By Donna Babineau
My husband and I rode our Harley from New Hampshire to NewBrunswick, Nova Scotia, and PEI. This guide helped us out quite a lot along the way. I would reccomend it to anyone traveling the region.

Lonely Planet Nova Scotia et.al Aug 05, 2011
By I/O, Inc
Just returned from 3 weeks in Canadian Maritimes It was an valuable companion. Never gave a bum steer, pointed out the essence of what not to miss, and let us to discover other things along the way. Don't reply on it alone but if you have map reading skills, ability to listen to the natives, & willingness to go for more than the main line attractions, it's a bargain!
Maps could be more detailed and cross referencing of places and locations would help.
Otherwise, order it today if you're headed to the NB, NS or PEI.
