I ordered two books for our trip. First, the
Baja version of Mike and Terri Church's Camping Guide To Mexico. These books are essential for anyone driving into Mexico and it gives detailed instructions for finding all RV parks as well as exact GPS locations for each one. I ordered it from Amazon and it arrived by Canada Post incredibly fast! Page by page updates to the latest 2012 edition are posted on their website.
The second book I ordered was the
Moon Books' Baja Handbook. This is the guide for everything non RV and camping related and is the one recommended by Mike and Terri Church. This along with the Internet will be our restaurant and sightseeing guide. These books were under $20 each after shipping costs.
Looks like things are coming together for you.
ReplyDeleteWe like the Lonely Planet guidebooks. They don't make a specific book for the Baja, but you can buy the eBook version of the Baja chapter from their Mexico guidebook for less than $5... http://shop.lonelyplanet.com/ebooks/mexico/mexico-travel-guide-14/mexico-baja-california-chapter-14/
ReplyDeleteWe have the Lonely Planet Mexico Guide. The Baja section is quite small but it will be in the library as well.
DeleteWe are evry excitied to read all about the trip, but the planning too.
ReplyDeleteYou might want to check out Everything about RVing ( sorry, but I can't copy and paste their link on my IPad for some reason) they are caravaners ( i know, dirty word) but they have a 10 part series on RVing the Baja. Dan Goy is the fellas name. There used to be a TWU local 31 president by that name.
ReplyDeleteYes, I know Dan Goy. I should have a look although anything to do with caravans leaves a bad taste...
