Customer Reviews

Very Useful

I loved the story like approach of this book. Very informative and a very nice read. This was my first rough guide and I don't think I will buy any other kind of travel guide again.

Rough Guide worth while

This is the third Rough Guide I have bought to help me plan my trips. And as usual it offers very good guide to the best places to have fun while staying on budget. The chapter about San Diego is especially good and I urge you to follow the books guidance and go to the Cheese Shop. Great Sandwiches. All in all a good travelling companion and introduction to California

Please... Anaheim?

I don't know anything about this book, but please... Anaheim? I have lived in California for 20+ years, and in my opinion Anaheim is one of the worst cities in California and should be skipped completely. Barstow is head and shoulders above Anaheim... If you really want to see the best city in California, however, visit Bishop...

California, Here I come

In planning a family vacation to California, we found the book by Julie Douglas to be very informative and loads of fun for our children. We all learned a lot and had such fun doing it. Hope to see more books like this. Very creative activities!

Great for the Cool Cali Traveler

If you're looking for a guide to give you an accurate picture of the place you're heading, then Rough Guide is undeniably the best series of travel guides that blends informative reviews with wry observation of the local fauna. It's also the most logical for the 20's-30's set that enjoys traveling but lacks the financial success needed to use a Michelin guide. When you're traveling on your own dime and want to hit the tourist attractions and some cool places not immediately visible to the visitor's eye, spend the 15 bucks for the book.Anji Milanovic
