What Guide Book Is Right For You?
Not sure what guide book is right for you? There are lots of choices.

Our top picks by Budget:

	Let's Go (especially for students) Lonely Planet
	Moon Guide (They are not available for every country yet. Great for Cuba, Central America and now South East Asia) Rough Guide (These guys also have been creating downloadable guides for your PDA from their website.)
	Moon Guide Rough Guide Frommers (Usually appeals for an older crowd)
	Frommers Foders

If you are going to be in a city for awhile then definitely check out the following two guides:

Time Out-
Eye Witness -

Digital Guides
There are more and more products coming out for your iPod, PDA or Mobile!

Digital Rough Guides
Digital Lonely Planets

Three essentials for India:
GET YOUR VISA ORGANIZED AHEAD OF TIME. The Embassy wait can be brutal!

A-Z of Adventure Travel Insurance from World Nomads as you will probably get "Delhi Belly."

Hostelworld was a great help for finding cheap, but decent accommodation in India!
