.Fodor's Maine, Vermont & New Hampshire, 11th edition (Fodor's Gold Guides)
City Travel Guides > Books > Fodors
by: Fodor's

September 23, 2008
FODOR'S MAINE, VERMONT & NEW HAMPSHIRE, 11TH EDITION is an excellent overview of the northernmost New England states. In addition to telling the reader about available opportunities in each area for recreation, dining, nightlife, shopping, and lodging, it also discusses the history of the area and mentions where you can go to learn about the history of each state. Anyone who, in 1984, saw the based-on-fact movie WHY ME?, in which the lead character's face is virtually destroyed in a car wreck caused by a drunk driver, might enjoy reading the Maine section's blurb on the home of anti-alcohol crusader Neal Dow, who invented Prohibition in 1851, while people who want inspiration to fight for what's important to them will love the parts of the ...

.Fodor's Scotland, 20th Edition (Fodor's Gold Guides)

Great book - I visited a friend in Scotland who had never been a "tourist in her own country" and we both found the book to be very helpful in choosing what sites to see. Will use it the next time I visit.

The only drawback is that it's hard to figure out exactly where the restaurants are in relation to the visitor attractions. Maybe a map with the the restaurants noted on it would help.

.Fodor's Walt Disney World® 2008: with Universal Orlando and SeaWorld (Fodor's Gold Guides)

This is a pretty good book on Walt Disney World. However, there are better guide books out there, specifically The Complete Guide to Walt Disney World, PassPorter's Walt Disney World and the Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World.

If you already have the above three books and would like another opinion, then pickup this book. It does have pretty solid coverage.

Found this guide extremely useful for planning and enjoying a week's trip to Saigon and the surrounding area.

There is a rich array of Vietnamese history and experiences awaiting visitors, so this book can be helpful in arranging for the best use of your time and most rewarding experiences, according to your interests.

.Fodor's Beijing and Shanghai, 1st Edition (Fodor's Gold Guides)

When we went to China..we bought the Eyewitness Guide that everyone raved about...as well as Lonely Planet for Shanghai and Beijing...and we usually love Lonely planet books...this book was a gift..and since we don't usually like Fodor's..we didn't expect much..however we did find it very helpful on the places to eat, places to visit, things to see. Although Eyewitness..and the Insight Guide were much more informative on China culture/history etc..but for getting around.. I would reccommend this book.

.Fodor's New York City 2008 (Fodor's Gold Guides)
City Travel Guides > Books > Fodors

August 28, 2007
I found this guide slightly cumbersome due to the breadth of information, but what can you expect when covering such a vastly rich expanse such as New York City? I enjoyed the pictorial nuances and especially the "Word of Mouth" section that includes what you might expect: thoughts, recommendations & suggestions from native New Yorkers. These tid-bits are included in various parts of the guide--I thought this was an exceptionally informative touch. The introduction is well written, especially the suggestion on seeing the sights on foot.

As a side note: I have visited New York on many occasions but had never invested in a guide. I would certainly recommend the Fodor's over perhaps Frommer's, but would also caution those to purchase a secondary ... Read More:
