Review of Frommer's California 2007 (Frommer's Complete) (Paperback)

I purchased this book for a family driving vacation that started in Los Angeles- up the Pacific Coast Highway to San Fransisco and then to the Sequoia National Forest. We found the budget hotel suggestions to be very helpful and stayed in several that were listed and were very pleased. The restarant suggestions were not as helpful as it seemed most listed were the most expensive and exclusive in the cities- not an option with a family. We were dissapointed with the one nice resteraunt we chose out of this book. Overall the book seemed to be very up to date and having the addresses and phone numbers for attractionsand facilities was very helpful. I would reccomend the book for someone like ourselves who has not visited CA previously

Review of Frommer's San Francisco 2007 (Frommer's Complete) (Paperback)

After reading the book from cover to cover, I feel like I am now an expert on San Francisco! We have been there before, but are looking forward to exploring (next month)areas of SF that we haven't been to yet. The in depth reporting, and mapping, of all areas of the city will make it a breeze to get around in. It was a good idea for them to put a fold out map in the book as well. Can't wait to go!

Product Description
According to the Department of Commerce, San Francisco is one of the 10 most visited U.S. cities. In 2004, San Francisco hosted more than 15 million visitors.
