.Barcelona & Catalonia (Eyewitness Travel Guides)
City Travel Guides > Books > Guidebook Series
by: DK Publishing

March 20, 2006
This series just keeps me amazed!!! I have 9 books of the Eyewitness Travel Guide and it hasn't let me down just yet! This book has everything you need!! It has the maps of the Metros, helpful tips on how to save money, it has guided walks (I took them and they are fabulous!!) It has a very detailed map of the center of Barcelona with Street Finders (VEEERRYYY helpful). It has colorful pictures and the story behind them.

I went to Spain on the Easter Holiday. Spent 4 days in Madrid and 4 days in Barcelona. I had been to Madrid before, but not in Barcelona. I went there with my boyfriend and it was his first time too. With this book we covered everything and didn't leave anything important out!! We didn't need any tour ... Read More:

.Jordan (Country Guide)
City Travel Guides > Books > Guidebook Series
by: Bradley Mayhew

April 01, 2006
If you're planning on touring Jordan independently, then this is the book for you. It also is very helpful in identifying activities and tours of interest (especially activities off the beaten trail), and it guides you to reputable local tour companies.

My Jordan tour is not until December, 2008. However, I feel very confident that I have chosen the best hotels and activities within my budget.

.Fodor's Caribbean 2008 (Fodor's Gold Guides)
City Travel Guides > Books > Guidebook Series
by: Fodor's

August 28, 2007
The book is great - all sorts of detailed information, tips, and maps. A must have for the Caribbean traveler. It gives detailed info on the best places to shop, eat, sleep, and relax. It's going with us on our next cruise, and we've already picked out some places to go. Thanks, Fodor's!

My only complaint is with Amazon.com. You shipped it to the wrong address and then ignored my email asking for help. My brother then shipped the book to me at his own expense...and you then ignored my email asking for reimbursement. Nicely done. And THIS is why I canceled my Amazon Prime membership. Caveat emptor, indeed.

Very handy as we drove around. Hit the main highlights of every region and even some off the beaten track. Useful maps within each section helped to plan the day's events.

.Frommer's Oregon (Frommer's Complete)
City Travel Guides > Books > Guidebook Series
by: Karl Samson

April 21, 2008
I took a trip with my family to Oregon a few months ago and we used this book as our guide, and it ended up becoming our Oregon Bible. We stayed for about a week and stopped in many locations: Portland, the Columbia River Gorge, Mt. Hood, Bend, Eugene, and all the way up the coast from Florence to Cannon Beach (and we still barely scratched the surface, it seems).

We did the recommended restaurants, attractions, parks, hikes, and lodgings and found the descriptions for each were spot-on and detailed. We mostly ate and stayed at the no-star/one-star places and even those were excellent. Of course, the 3-star system that Frommer's Guides use is subjective but we ended up mostly agreeing with them (one exception was the Oregon Aquarium ... Read More:

We just finished a three-week trip to Italy, and found this guide totally reliable. Even if you don't speak Italian, you can puzzle out the essence of the reviews, and you can't go wrong with restaurants listed.

.Morocco (Eyewitness Travel Guides)
City Travel Guides > Books > Guidebook Series
by: DK Publishing

September 06, 2004
Though many swear by the LP guides, my Eyewitness guide did me well during my recent 10 day excursion through Marrakesh, Fes, and Casablanca. It's not so great for finding hotels and restaurants, as well as many "big picture" details (like where to find walking tours, etc.), but the history sections at the beginning of the guide were incredibly informative and helped me understand the culture and background of the people before I went, and the pictures (both photos and illustrations) and descriptions of the sites are great. Especially important since in Morocco, if there's a non-Arabic description of anything, it's typically only in French. Finally, it's a good keepsake at the end of the trip... a great collection of photos of the sights in case you ... Read More:
