Customer Reviews

This book has tons of things

in it that you'll never find all in one place. I used it and was pleased with it

Excellent Guide

A very comprehensive guide for the state of Virginia. Even though I am a frequent visitor to Virginia, I found many new interesting places to add to future itineraries.

A good overview of Virginia

Concise, up-to-date and useful descriptions of attractions, hotels and restaurants around Virginia. Not a tremendous amount of depth of information on any one spot, but if you're traveling around the state, this is a good guide.
