.The Sailing Adventures of La Boatique
City Travel Guides > Books > Australia and South Pacific
by: Susan Wagner, Peter Wagner

2002-07
As a mother of two with a fixer-upper house, my husband and I stay on dry land and do not take risky vacations. Ms. Wagner's book is great in that she shares the stage for being on an exotic get-a-way far from the comforts of home. Sometimes while doing dishes I look out the window and see the ocean - but fortunately for me - I have yet to get sea sick!

.Eyewitness Travel Guides Bali And Lombok
City Travel Guides > Books > Australia and South Pacific
by: Dorling Kindersley

August 14, 2007
Colorful guidebook has marvelous images that create an immediate illustration of Bali and Lombok.

While the practical references are a bit truncated (foreign embassies listed are only Australia and USA; hotel & restaurant listings are scanty), the cultural & special interest tips are excellent.

The guide works its magic by tying photos to text. The reader can zero in on an image and immediately see the relevant text. This is a highly practical format, leaving no mystery as to whether some place or item may be of real interest to the individual reader. Therefore, reader can figure out what he/she wants to see & do without slogging through chapter upon chapter of text.

.Hawaii For Dummies
City Travel Guides > Books > Australia and South Pacific
by: Cheryl Farr Leas

December 01, 2006
This is an AWESOME book. We used it extensively during our week in Maui. Great recommendations for tour guides, trip excursion companies, etc. I usually just use AAA guide books with good success and happened to see this book a couple of days before leaving for Hawaii with our family. It made our trip so much better and was right on mark!. Highly recommended! Only after I returned did I learn that there was an edition on Maui itself, which I did not use (obviously). Never knew the Dummies series included books on specific travel places like this.
