Access Los Angeles

Great for a broad overview. Could use more details and restaurants.

Do more than shop & eat in L.A.

This book is phenomenal for architecture, museums, parks, galleries and other interesting sites. The maps help us in using large L.A. map to keep us oriented. Have found some great places to shop by just checking the area around our destinations, like the outdoor mall area of Santa Monica. Have made L.A. trips using the older version and love it.

Excellent Guide for the inquisitive traveller

ACCESS guides are excellent for the traveller who wants to know exactly what they are getting into. The guide practically walks you down the street and lets you look into each store, restaurant, lodging, or sight. The guide is color-coded to identify restaurants, shops, hotels, sights. Additionally, probably as space fillers, there are numerous tidbits or facts or famous authors' bests of the city. Probably a weakness of ACCESS is its maps. An excellent starting point for researching your next vacation.

Great Book!

I thought this book is great for a prospective traveller to San Diego. It has beautiful pictures, great details on area attractions, and suggestions on where to stay in San Diego! It's a must read for those who are planning a first time trip to San Diego!
