Frommer's Southeast Asia brings you the best the region has to offer, from colorful markets and festivals to luxury resorts and local dining. Our expert authors give you tips on visiting some of the world's most amazing temples, from Cambodia's Angkor Wat to Thailand's Grand Palace and the Emerald Buddha of Wat Phra Kaeo, plus detailed maps and candid advice on what is--and what's not--worth your time and money. In-depth culture and history information gives you the background you need to appreciate the sites you'll see and the people you'll meet.
A good representation of what's there. The maps were extremely accurate and the price gauge was great and very useful. I enjoy Fommer's books.

- Bali, Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, Laos.. Get the highlights of frommers books in one edition. As all Frommers, great recommendations on itineraries (Best of lists) and opinionated. Not for backpackers who want to know more details (lonely planet is best for that) but great for those who want a range of options and strong guidance.
outstanding

This guide is one of the best guide books. It has everything you need to know before going to Asia. From currency, weather, attractions, shopping, beaches, bargain accomodations to the best local dining experience. I liked the various highlights that were given for each city in asia. This way if you are pressed for time while traveling, you can pick out the sites that were listed. Very helpful with the information provided for getting arounfd the city. It lists various modes of transportation, and the approximate costs. A must have if you are traveling to asia.
