Outstanding Travel Guide for New England

New England is a spectacular travel destination, with mountains, rocky Atlantic coastline, fall foliage, exciting things to see and do in Boston, and some of the nation's most important historic sites. This Frommer's travel guide is a great guide to this region. Basic travel information, including climate information, a calendar of events, and "best" experiences lead off. Each state and town described has a useful introduction containing either historical information or information about what makes the state or town distinct. The chapters on each area of New England contain useful information on food, attractions, lodging, shopping, nightlife, and other activities. This well-written travel guide would be a great aid to the aspiring New England traveler.

Good overall

We bought the Mobile book, the "Everything" book and this book. Of the three, this had the most detailed information. The maps are not great but the rest of the book makes up for that. The regional grouping was a great help.

A travel guide for readers

Let's face it; most travel books are a glance-and-go proposition. Most of them do a passable job providing key information, but they aren't exactly a pleasure to read. Frommer's New England 2003 changes all that. Not only are the cititations clear, correct, and complete, many of them are laugh-out-loud funny or wickedly sly. At the end of a busy day on the road, I actually found myself reading the guide for fun (while happily settled in one of the recommended accommodations).A literate guide obviously written by folks in the know.

Frommer's New England 2003

Great for a recent trip to Boston and Newport, RI.The tips on what to see and what to avoid were dead on.

Extremely Valuable

I have never bought a Frommer's Guide Book before, and now after I purchased this one, I am a loyal customer! I found it extremely insightful as to the most quaint New England towns to visit, which are the best routes to get there, practical information on the restaurants in town as well as their price ranges for any type of budgets - as well as advice on the many different bed and breakfasts that are available. This book caters to all travel styles, preferences and budgets. I planned most of my vacation with this book because it had phone numbers, prices, excellent directions... I could probably go on and on. Definitely a must for anyone who is traveling and not familiar with the area. It's like talking to someone who has lived in New England their whole life and is on hand to give you all the practical information you need to have a successful and fun/relaxing vacation. As if the book weren't great enough - they give you a wonderful full-sized pullout map that has all the towns marked on it which are mentioned in the book.
