Traveler's Guide to Mexican Camping: Explore Mexico, Guatemala, and Belize with Your RV or Tent (Traveler's Guide series) Paperback – September 1, 2009

I own a few past editions of this book but this is the best. A Must have along with paper maps, map apps & a margarita to help plan your next Mexico adventure.

We found the Traveler's Guide to Mexican Camping a very complete tool in helping us plan our first vacation in Mexico. It is very well structured with preliminary chapters covering a multitude of details like road network, security,food provisioning, do's and don't, border crossing procedures, listing of additional references, etc...The listing of campsites by regions contains the right amount of information required to buld a short list prior to the final selection of a campsite especially when combined with the area or town description.The format of the book is handy and the quality and finish of the paper used makes it resistant to wear and tear normally associated with the extensive use of that type of publications.

I like the camping guide but very outdated as things in Mexico change very fast. Still, all in all , a very informative guide.

This book is mostly a big list of RV parks. This is probably very useful to those traveling by RV (or car campers who don't mind RV parks I suppose) but most tent campers won't find much value here. There is some good info on border crossing formalities but that info is also available on sites like drivetheamericas.com.I ordered the book based on the reviews here as well as the "or Tent" part of the title but I'm pretty disappointed.I won't be bringing it with me on my trip. Since I don't need electricity or dump stations I'm just going to find places to camp as I go.

I like the explanations of the cities/regions and the descriptions of the parks, though some are a bit outdated, that's to be expected given the reality that it can only be updated so often. Our friends had this book while we traveled around Baja for 3 months together, so when we headed to the mainland I decided we needed a copy of our own! Works best as a supplement to sites like campendium.com and the iOverlander app.

We bought this because we were coming to Mexico in our rv. We have only found one camp ground. That actually exists anymore. Even though it was re-published in the last 5 years most of the material is almost 20 yrs old. The majority of places in this book no longer exist for camping.

This book is a must for anyone considering an exploratory trip to Mexico. We just returned from a visit to the West Coast, Sonora and Sinoloa, to check out the beaches. We found this book indispensible for guiding us to some great places. Our GPS didn't work there, and there are very few landmarks, with vast distances between cities. That fact, and the amount of back-road driving, makes it extremely necessary to have precise directions for getting from one location to another. We could not have done it without this book.

It’s reasonable to downgrade ratings, as some have done, because the edition is 10 years old, and things change. HOWEVER, I could not have successfully driven my RV to Mexico last year without the knowledge I gained from this book. The way I see it, you can spend a lot of time scrolling through fluff and ads and opinions on free web sites, or you can get this book—I don’t know any other option.
