Paraguay is (still) not a typical holiday destination. Mass tourism has yet to discover its attractions and sights. This is precisely why you can experience authentic South America, its inhabitants, and customs firsthand here. The practical travel guide is thoroughly researched (as of October 2016) and covers around 50 destinations throughout the country: from the must-sees of the capital Asunción and the waterfalls at the Brazilian border to the colonial monuments of the Jesuits and adventurous, hard-to-reach nature parks in the north of the country. The first part of the book provides practical information on preparations, travel, geography, food and drink, transportation (by bus and car), telecommunications, nature, climate, and much more. The second part consists of suggested itineraries for independent travelers that can be done by both car and bus.
