Maui Revealed: The Ultimate Guidebook (Maui Revealed)
by Andrew Doughty
Amazon Price: $11.53


Customer Review: This is a great book and very popular. It seemed most people doing driving tours around the island had one.

Frommer’s Paris 2010 (Frommer’s Color Complete Guides)

Frommer’s Costa Rica 2010 (Frommer’s Color Complete Guides)
by Eliot Greenspan
Amazon Price: $14.95


Customer Review: This guide book does a poor job at featuring the lower end lodges. The bus information was helpful in San Jose and the common phases section was helpful too. If you are traveling on a budget and plan on staying in youth hostels, I would not recommend this guide book.
