Great Book on Kauai

Excellent book for planning a trip to Kauai. The book includes many maps, pictures and 13 page section on the history of the island. The author obviously has a great love for the island and this sets the book apart from many travel books which often just become lists of things to do without much thought put into it. Reading this book, on the other hand, you get the feeling of being guided by someone who really cares about, and knows, the island. All the phone numbers and addresses for restaurants, hotels, museums, etc. are there -- but it's the little details (e.g. the highlighting of more out of the way spots, the historical and cultural detail) that really sets this book apart from the others. Highly recommended.

Great Guide Book

I can't recommend this book enough. I've been to Kauai several times and thought I'd seen and done it all, but this book shows me that I haven't. I'm going again this spring and can't wait to check out all of these great recommendations! Also, there's not a lot of info out there with an eco-slant, so it's a refreshing new option.

Kauai: Great Destinations Hawaii: A complete Guide

Kauai: Great Destinations Hawaii: A Complete Guide (Great Destinations) A great book if you're planning on visiting one of the more interesting islands. Although I've already been to Kauai before, now after having gotten the book, I'm thinking I need to go back. It turns out there were things I never knew were there, and this book gives all kinds of great information not only about the island itself, but about its people as well. A "must have" if you're visiting Kauai for the first time or even a "regular".

THE BEST KAUAI GUIDE BOOK!

I am going to Kauai in January. My husband is from Oahu and he is usually skeptical of all travel books. But he REALLY loved this one! It's so informative. There is so much great information. This book is the best Kauai guide because it really gives you great places to go while respecting the aina of the people. Thanks Great Destinations Kauai!!!

Perfect for the adventurous and environmentally responsible traveler!

I really appreciate the thought and research put into this book. I'm planning a 10 day trip to Kauai in the spring and with this publication I finally feel prepared. I live a very socially responsible lifestyle and I always like to extend this as much as possible into my travel and the author has highlighted so many great places to visit so I can actually achieve this!
