A good guide to some of the US. by Melvin C. Shaffer
This is a good and simple guide to the principle things to see and how to do it. Recommended for family travel

Beautiful photography by C. Snyder
This would be a beautiful coffee table book. It is even more helpful in planning plces to visit and reliving favorite memories from past trips.

Great help for travelling the USA by D. Rutten
This book is a great help to make beautiful trips trough the country! Good descriptions and maps of the drives. You can search tours in all 50 states. Beautiful pictures!

Great pictures,maps and narrative. by Southern Dad
I love to travel and this book will be a welcome reference for your road trips. Beautifully bound with gorgeous pictures, this book will please you for years to come.

The Big Drive by Peter A. Skinner
Looking for a combination of Drives to get the best out of a Touring Holiday in the USA - you need this book! It is easy to link together many of the “120 Spectacular Road Trips” to form a fantastic itinerary to see the best scenery and sights the USA has to offer. It’s better than the more specialised “Route 66″ and “Lincoln Highway” drives for visitors to the USA who are wanting to experience a broader cross section of US history and its stunning geography. Maps are clear, colour photography whets the appetite and cultural and scenic highlights are picked out in the commentary. Combined with the use of a simple Tom Tom style GPS system the book would provide the solution for visitors planning a Touring experience of the USA - from the smallest local scale to an epic journey covering the best of the nation.

Great Map! by Estefania Fernandez
This is a great map of the city, easy to carry around. It’s plastic, a big plus when it starts raining or if you spill anything on it. My only complain is that it does not include a Subway Map. It has Subway Routes in the map but with all the streets, etc it get a little difficult to make out.
Overall, great map. A must have for tourist or anyone new to the city.

A nice map of NYC by Almagirl
I purchased this map to use on a short trip to NYC. Although it is laminated and folds up to pocket size, there were better maps in the guide books I purchased. On the trip, I didn’t use it very much.

Adequate Map - light weight. by P. Newman
I rate this as number three of the four references I purchased to help me navigate NYC. It’s sturdy, compact, light weight and packs in all the information you might need to navigate Manhattan and hit the tourist spots.
This is the map to buy if you want to travel light in Manhattan.

Lame nyc map by R. Formica
don’t waste your money. just because its laminated doesn’t make it a good map. Not all streets are on it and sections of manhattan are missing. I wouldn’t count on this map to help you out if you don’t know the area and have things memorized before you get here. WE got lost on more than one occasion trying to use this thing.
Get the NFT black book of nyc instead. It has all you need and is small enough to fit into your purse or pocket.

The Best Maps in the World!!! by NancyAnne Canaletich
I use these maps on every trip I go on! They are so accurate and easy to use. The map is durable for every type of weather and small enough to stick in a small bag. There is a streetwise map for every major city we have gone to and we love them! It’s a great “memory keeper” as well.
