THIS is your perfect travel guide

Visiting a new place but don't want to visit the rote "tourist traps" or cliched locales that everybody and their cousin has seen? This guide is PERFECT. This is how to really get the "feel" of a city, rather than mindlessly tromping to one tourist attraction after the next.Also, sections are perfectly organized, such as: Best Live Music Clubs, Best Dance Bars, Best All-Night Eateries, Best Jazz Clubs, Best Record Stores, etc.I used this book on a recent first outing to San Francisco; everything was "as advertised." Yes, some of the listings are out-of-date, but that's to be expected. This should actually be a website!Buy it. Read it on the plane there. I can't recommend this enough.
