5/5Turns daydreaming into an actual plan
Been using LP's books for years and figured the app would just be a glorified PDF. Nope. The guides actually have a point of view, so I'm not stuck scrolling through 40 things to do, restaurants, and accommodations that all look the same. And the advice is actionable too: I go from "oh that looks cool" to a day-by-day itinerary. The AI guide thing won me over too. Asked it for a half-day near my hotel with good coffee and not much walking, and it gave me a real plan, not generic junk. You can tell it's pulling from the actual guides, and the recommendations come from real people. Pretty much the only travel app I use for planning and while I'm on the trip, not just dreaming about one.

5/5THANK YOU
THANK YOU LONELY PLANET FOR CREATING THIS APP!! I’ve loved Lonely Planet guide books for years, and can always trust that I will get amazing recommendations. However, it would be a huge investment to get physical copies of all books related to your destination (i.e. Japan). This app is the perfect solution, and I am so excited that I’ll get to have all guides with me during my travels. I would 100% pay a monthly membership fee to have access to all of Lonely Planet’s content. As a side note, the app design is beautiful. Colors, typography, photography, all perfect!

5/5Loved using this during trips!
I always trust recs from lonely planet, especially because I know they come from real travelers. I used the app for a quick check on places to see & where to eat during my trip to New Zealand and loved having everything in one place. The itinerary builder is great too, excited to keep coming back to plan future trips & get travel inspo.

3/5Article Collection
I very much enjoy Lonely Planet’s guidebooks. I’ve been buying physical and digital copies for years. I was hoping that instead of buying a new copy for each trip, this app would allow me to view the same content that’s in their books, but in a streamlined app experience. Unfortunately, my expectations have not been met. Instead of the book level of depth and ease, this app is largely a consolidation of Lonely Planet’s articles. Therefore, the content is not as in depth and is more useful for daydreaming about traveling than actually planning for it.

5/5Trusted travel guides now on my phone!
Lonely Planet guides have been trusted in my family for many years so it’s very exciting to have the same high quality content available at my fingertips. I’ve already started building itineraries for my upcoming trips, and I’m so looking forward to using the interactive maps while on the ground!
