This book has some good ideas， but feels incomplete， in that the descriptions of each trip can be quite vague。 You would need supplemental materials to actually plan a trip， and I don't think there were enough hotel/food options。 This book has some good ideas， but feels incomplete， in that the descriptions of each trip can be quite vague。 You would need supplemental materials to actually plan a trip， and I don't think there were enough hotel/food options。 。。。more

Used this book as I traveled across the country。 I have done several of the road trips in New England and Route 66 and have found it a trusty guide on all my adventures。

What a great collection of road trips！ A few I have already done， but the recommendations and photos inspire me to “hit the road” in those areas again。 Full of great recommendations on food， Lodi g， and activities。 I also like the “stretch your legs” recommendations and traveling tips。 Four stars because the ebook version is hard to read。

A great place to start planning a road trip。 Divided geographically， includes the recommended number of days for each trip。 Classic trips， highlights and side trips。

This book is good。 The routes suggested are great and it is a good starting point to start planning a trip。It provides the stops， detours and the estimated time。 Also it tells you the best time to go and what that particular route is best for。However， that's it。 It does not tell you what to do in each place once you get there， which is why I feel it si somewhat lacking or incomplete。 You should complement it with your own research or another book to really be able to plan a trip。 This book is good。 The routes suggested are great and it is a good starting point to start planning a trip。It provides the stops， detours and the estimated time。 Also it tells you the best time to go and what that particular route is best for。However， that's it。 It does not tell you what to do in each place once you get there， which is why I feel it si somewhat lacking or incomplete。 You should complement it with your own research or another book to really be able to plan a trip。 。。。more

What I really like about this guide is how interactive it is。 I downloaded a Kindle copy to my iPad and it’s a revelation。 I’m done with paper guide books now， this one allows me to jump around at will and best of all it has useful hyperlinks to sites offering more in-depth information on a whole ream of places， activities etc。 Ok， I’m not sure how up to date the embedded information on places to eat and sleep is， but that’s a minor quibble。My primary aim here was to use the information I gather What I really like about this guide is how interactive it is。 I downloaded a Kindle copy to my iPad and it’s a revelation。 I’m done with paper guide books now， this one allows me to jump around at will and best of all it has useful hyperlinks to sites offering more in-depth information on a whole ream of places， activities etc。 Ok， I’m not sure how up to date the embedded information on places to eat and sleep is， but that’s a minor quibble。My primary aim here was to use the information I gathered to help plan a road trip to America’s Deep South next year。 There’s a limited number of routes included but then this is a publication that takes on a much wider remit， so I can forgive it that。 The routes that are suggested are useful and include maps and distances between suggested stop points。 My only moan is that the the routes do lack in-depth exploration of the suggested path – for instance， in the Cajun Country route （230 miles from Thibodaux， Louisiana to Lafayette） there are only six suggested highlights， and they include the start and end points。 In summary， I think this is a very useful guide to kick off your planning but you’re going to need to do a good deal more research and seek out a guide more specifically focused on your chosen area before you embark on the trip itself。 。。。more

Really cool book！ Will definitely be using when planning my next roadtrip。

Should be bought as paperback！I'm not sure how to rate this book as it's simply one of those books that doesn't translate well for kindle reading。 First of all， you had to read in landscape mode。 It's then full of pop ups in order to read the text。 You couldn't or I couldn't figure out how to take notes or highlight。 It simply was just not easy to read on my Kindle fire 。 The book does seem full of full colored pictures and lots of info。 I think I might pop in to a bookstore and check this out i Should be bought as paperback！I'm not sure how to rate this book as it's simply one of those books that doesn't translate well for kindle reading。 First of all， you had to read in landscape mode。 It's then full of pop ups in order to read the text。 You couldn't or I couldn't figure out how to take notes or highlight。 It simply was just not easy to read on my Kindle fire 。 The book does seem full of full colored pictures and lots of info。 I think I might pop in to a bookstore and check this out in person。 I really do think it's probably an awesome book。 Just not for kindle。 。。。more
