Summary: One of the best travel gems!
Review: Where was this book when I was planning my trip to Oahu?? I actually ran across it upon my return and immediately ordered it to plan my next trip.This is one of the most concise and easiest guidebooks I have ever seen! It actually doubles as a great coffee table book loaded with gorgeous pictures and information on every area on the island. The book literally takes you on a tour around Oahu, dividing the island's shores beginning with the South Shore. Filled with graphic organizers of parks in that particular shore to weather-it is handy to glance for quick info. A detailed description of sites accompany pictures and info on traveling. There is just so much info jammed in the pages, it is hard to list all of it but it is organized neatly! The maps are right on the money!

Summary: ¿Driving & Discovering Oahu¿ named "Best Hawaii Guidebook"
Review: Winner of the "Best Hawaii Guidebook" prize at the most recent American Airlines / Hawaii Visitors and Conventions Bureau Travel Journalism Awards, "Driving & Discovering Oahu" has been acclaimed throughout the world for its unique approach to helping travelers and residents alike discover --and rediscover-- Hawaii's most visited island. Opinions expressed by Native Oahuans attest that "Driving & Discovering Oahu" uncovers a wealth of information and locations unfamiliar even to life-long residents. Secret beaches so little known that they remain officially unnamed coexist with beautiful little deserted islands that intrepid explorers can claim for their very own-and as incongruous as it may seem, all are located within a few miles of the nation's tenth largest city, Honolulu. Special sections in the book feature Oahu's best Secret Beaches, Hidden Waterfalls, Deserted Islands and Magnificent Hiking Trails. The 250 photographs in "Driving & Discovering Oahu" are indicated by a numbered location right on the book's maps, allowing visitors to preview every nook and cranny of the island before setting out for the day. Equally unique, this "Photo Finder Feature" does double duty by leading photographers, film production crews and amateur video enthusiasts alike to all of the islands very best photo locations ...something no other guidebook has ever done before. In fact, the Honolulu Film Office, whose function it is to attract film and TV production to the island, has thus far purchased 3,000 copies of "Driving & Discovering Oahu" to distribute to motion picture professionals. Beach Charts name every Oahu strand and list the amenities that each offers. Weather Charts allow visitors and professionals alike to best plan their days for maximum utility and fun. Advice and guidance for taking great scenic travel photographs are dispensed generously throughout the volume. And, since most of the featured locations are reachable by public transportation, complete directions for taking The Bus are also included. We can confidently boast that Driving & Discovering Oahu is by far the most complete guidebook on the market. Newspaper critics from New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and Honolulu all agree with Honolulu's Mayor Jeremy Harris- Driving & Discovering Oahu no ka oi!
