Fiji books

Fiji

by: Dean Starnes, Nana Luckham
I've been thinking about going to Fiji for a number of years now, and despite Lonely Planet's stumbling as of late with the quality of their travel books, I feel this is back to meeting the standards which we expect for Lonely Planet. There's a wealth of information, and on my quick spotchecks of hotels, how to get from A to B and activities, the information was accurate.

I'm quite impressed with the depth of the book, and instead of a high-level overview dedicated to tourists who will never venture off the beaten path, it seems that the authors really did their homework.

Moon Fiji

by: David Stanley
I bought this book as a guide before my honeymoon. I had already looked around a couple of eco-tourism web sites and booked a couple of hotels; in one case, I changed my mind because of this book and ended up canceling a booking. It's a well-organized guide with astonishing clarity and frankness. Some off-hand tips include who to talk to (first names) at travel agencies/resorts/etc. for tips and deals, what times of day and/or days of the week you should avoid certain activities, what environment to expect at a hotel or resort (Partying backpackers? Couples only? Family-oriented? Rich lazies?), which buses leave early/late or stay overnight, how to deal with hagglers, general Fijian pronunciation tips and cultural guidelines (including an apparently conservative dress code in the villages that I would have regretted not knowing beforehand), where and how women will feel safe, and of course, which restaurants and accommodations offer the best deals.
