9 of 9 people found the following review helpful:  Well worth the money, By Jazzman (Vermont) - See all my reviews This review is from: Fodor's U.S. and British Virgin Islands 2009 (Travel Guide) (Paperback) I am usually not a huge Fodor's fan, but I do recommend this reference as a good general resource for under $12.00, especially for BVI first-timers. It includes the USVI, so if you're planning to be on St. John or St. Thomas, this will be helpful for that, as well. In 240 pages, it provides all the basics, as well as some helpful maps. 8 of 8 people found the following review helpful:  Not as in depth as one would hope, By This review is from: Fodor's U.S. & British Virgin Islands, 22nd Edition (Full-color Travel Guide) (Paperback) Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?) The guide was very positive (a bit too positive) about every destination and didn't necessarily offer a constructive view. If you have a limited amount of time and budget and don't specifically know where you want to go in the Caribbean this guide won't help you narrow it down quickly. I offer the National Geographic website "Island Destinations Rated: Caribbean" as a much better introduction to the islands not written by the local tourism development head that can quickly give you some of the pro's and con's. Besides this I used this book to try and plan a trip to the Virgin Islands, specifically St. John - however while many things were adequate I felt the book fell short. At a mere 35 pages on St. John (less if you take away full sized pictures) this guide was far too brief for my tastes and I found myself going to the internet to research more. I think if you printed all of this out on your own with 8X11 paper you would get about 10 sheets. If you plan on staying on...Read more 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: Very pretty book but lacks local flavor, By This review is from: Fodor's U.S. & British Virgin Islands, 22nd Edition (Full-color Travel Guide) (Paperback) Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?) This is a very nice looking little volume detailing the U.S. & British Virgin Islands. Since my wife and I were planning to visit there this year I thought I should read up on where we should go and what we should do. The book is grouped into chapters by island, with recommendations for Beaches, Where to Eat, Where to Stay, Sports and the Outdoors, Shopping, and Nightlife for each island. There is also a separate section for diving and snorkeling as well as chartering a yacht. Each chapter is labeled with a quote from a Fodor's online user. These quotes may have seemed like a good idea, but they seem a little unhelpful to me. The opening section of each chapter is the most helpful, where the writers give a brief breakdown of the island - a little history, a little contemporary update and a little bit of what to expect as a tourist. But while this book does provide plenty of strikingly beautiful "full color" pictures throughout, it's a little lighter on...Read more |
