Customer Reviews

Banff

We used this last year and the prices were a little off but it came in handy for picking out the rustic lodges.

Canadian Rockies Guide

This guide was helpful in making preparations for our vacation to the Canadian Rockies, and made me more aware of what I should look out for.

Excellent resource for travel

Nice concise descriptions and good details of places to see, visit, and things to do. Easy to follow format and the index was surprisingly good. Good tips for hiking in the Canadian Rockies. Nice small size made it easy to keep this resource in a backpack pocket.

What to Do Where

The key feature of Frommer's guides is their "what to do if" pages. While I was on a tour which took us to certain attractions, there was sufficient free time to explore others. Having someone to guide you to the most worthwhile attractions depending on how much time you have available is helpful when visiting for the first time. I took some of their suggestions, but also found others just as interesting. The guide book is targeted for the mainstream adult audience rather than youth or those on a frugal budget. The pages of need to know items as well as items such as where to find bookstores and other make it very handy. The pages concerning accommodations and restaurants are as current as can be. I highly recommend it for its target audience Jonathan
