1Confusing Maps!  Jan 30, 1999
We found the maps and hiking times listed for destinations very inaccurate. The description of the trail routes lack detail and can be very confusing. One of the hikes we did in Boliva was the Choro Trial. This is ONE of the 3 Inca Trails in Boliva. One would assume that of any treks, this one would have been accurate. Not the case. If you are looking for a guide book to help you plan your treks in Boliva and/or Peru go with the Brant Guide book.

3Some new hikes, but prefered style of Bradt book.  Sep 16, 1998
Good introduction to hiking in Bolivia but found author's style unprofessional. Overall useful for treks but also used Trekking in Peru and Bolivia which was better but also had problems. Buy maps and learn Spanish! Hikes around Sorata are great!!!!!

4Offers many alternatives to the standard gringo trade routes  Nov 09, 1998
We were looking for off the beaten path backpack trips. In Brain's book we found the standard 'Inca Trail' routes that everyone writes about in addition to trips where we would saw no other tourist for several days. There are about 3 times as many routes described in Brain's book compared to the Brandt Guide. Also we found the Brain book more up to date. The only disappointment was that some of the descriptions were just plain incorrect. I got a feeling that this book was rushed to press.

3Limited variety of trekking options  Sep 02, 2005 By Emma
A good guide for longer trekking options. However, most of the are located in the same area. Could be better if the book had sorted them based on lenght and difficulty. For someone who is only going to trek, think it has a some great advice. However to get a little bit of both tourist trails and hardcore trek, I would not recommend this book

1A waste of time  Apr 17, 1999
Don't bother buying this book, it is no good. Inaccurate maps and descriptions and smart-ass writing style.
