Moon New Jersey (Moon Handbooks)

By Laura Kiniry

Often misunderstood by outsiders, New Jersey has been coming back into the nation's eye over the past few years. A native of the Garden State, Laura Kiniry guides travelers from revitalized Newark, which boasts the New Jersey Performing Arts Center, to the colonial tea-burning town of Greenwich. In between is college hub New Brunswick, which offers everything from fine dining to college pubs, the Thomas Alva Edison Memorial Museum, and Atlantic City's famous casinos and boardwalk. Kiniry also offers unique trip strategies that allow visitors to explore their specific interests, such as the Eight-Day Pop Culture Tour and Recreational New Jersey. From canoeing in The Pinelands to screaming on the roller coasters at Six Flags Great Adventure, Moon New Jersey gives travelers the tools they need to create a more personal and memorable experience.

Customer Reviews

Thank goodness South Jersey finally gets some love!!

This book is great. I used it to go to Princeton for the day and it was very helpful with directions and fun things to do there. I like how it gives you things to do that not other publications have mentioned. A great guide that I keep in my car in case I just want to drive with no destination in mind!!

Moon New Jersey (Moon Handbooks)

This handbook is excellent if you require detailed and accurate information about this specific region. Terrific value!

very comprehensive

this was my first time using a Moon Guide and i was very pleased. i was impressed with the number of small towns that were included. i found the author's recommendations, from restaurants to sightseeing, to be just as she described them. she was also honest about the "not so great" places. it's a great guide for exploring New Jersey!
