Book Overview

One of the country's most idyllic getaways, Napa and Sonoma charm visitors with superb wineries and wine, trendy restaurants and intimate resorts, and pampering spas. Time may seem to stand still in the iconic California countryside with its rows of leafy vines, but the luxury and sophistication here are thoroughly modern. -NEW FORMAT: Napa and Sonoma continue to grow in renown and popularity, with tourism spending on the rise. This new full-size color guide replaces Fodor's In Focus Napa & Sonoma and expands Fodor's coverage of outstanding wineries and restaurants as well as the increasing number of other activities beyond vineyard visits. -EXPANDED COVERAGE: Fodor's combed Napa and Sonoma for the best wineries, restaurants, and lodgings, adding more rising stars as well as longtime favorites. The "Experience Napa & Sonoma" chapter includes top winery recommendations, top activity picks, a food overview, and more winery-touring itineraries. "Best Bets" in each chapter highlight wineries with the best tours, wine tastings, food-pairing experiences, and setting. Non-winery activities get special attention, with more recommendations for outdoor fun, shopping, and spas. The latest trends and places are highlighted, from in-town tasting rooms, distilleries, and microbreweries to Napa nightlife and new wineries on the Sonoma Coast. Additional regional maps make it easy to find everything from restaurants to wineries. -ILLUSTRATED FEATURES: A helpful illustrated special chapter, "Visiting the Wineries", provides a step-by-step look at wine touring and wine production from field to bottle, along with tips for tasting and a "winespeak" glossary to help tasters get the most out of any visit. -INDISPENSABLE TRIP PLANNING TOOLS: This guide includes everything travelers need to plan a great trip, including "Top Experiences", "Top Wineries", "When to Go", "Great Itineraries", and regional winery "Best Bets" for particular interests. Chapters feature "Great Drives", too. -DISCERNING RECOMMENDATIONS: Fodor's Napa & Sonoma offers savvy advice and recommendations from expert writers to help travelers make the most of their time. Fodor's Choice designates our best picks, from hotels to nightlife. -INCLUDES: Napa, Yountville, St. Helena, Calistoga, Sonoma, Healdsburg, Geyserville, and more. -ABOUT FODOR'S AUTHORS: Each Fodor's travel guide is researched and written by local experts.

Used this book the entire trip

We spent a week in Boston with our 7 & 9 yr olds. We used this book to help guide us the whole time. My husband and I had never been to Boston before, so I read this book cover to cover before we went. While there I was able to easily pull it out and reference things I had already read about. It made getting around and seeing the sights much faster. We wasted very little time searching for things and asking directions.

Very Useful!

Well organized by area, with local attractions mapped within those areas, accurate times, good descriptions and histories, and times. Also, useful subway map.

Very helpful!

This book is packed with loads of information, yet it is still slim enough to carry with you. Great sections that include the Top 25 Sites To See in Boston, How to Organize Your Time (aroudn things like rush-hour traffic, etc.) ... as well as the other standard tourist book fare: hotels, restaurants, and shopping. All of this and a large map of the whole city (and the surrounding areas). Wonderful resource.

Helps you find everything

A nice compilation of maps that help you find everything and everywhere in Boston! I used it for my first ever trip to Boston and it was comforting to know it was always within easy reach. There are maps to help you find everything from neighborhoods to tourist attractions, from restaurants to colleges, from shopping to entertainment spots. Of course, the maps that I found most helpful of all were those for the Metro system and public transportation!Highly recommended if you'll be doing a lot of traveling around Boston on your own!

Boston Citypack-Excellent Guide

Fodor's Boston Citypack is a compact guide small enough to easily fit into a breast pocket. Despite its small size it is packed with concise and practical information about Boston and environs. It contains sample tour days with clear directions as well as a fold-out map inside the back cover. Recommendations for hotels, historical sites, and restaurants are brief and to the point. I found it an easy read and helpful companion as I walked the Freedom Trail and rode the public transportation. Well worth the price.
