 Very useful Kauai guidebook Mar 15, 2006
By Hoppe (travel_hops)
"Bob"
Used the book to tour and sightsee the entire island with ease. The descriptions are very accommodating, thorough and the photographs are exceptional. We were able to experience some of the recommend hiking in the guide as well, something we had not previously planned on doing due to time constraints; but it was well worth it and was one of our favorite activities on our trip. Best part of the book was the top spots chapter. Allowed us to quickly ID which spots were worth visiting during our 4 days on the island and which were best saved for another trip. I would highly recommend this guide to any Kauai visitor.

 Pehaps the worst guide book ever written Oct 23, 2006
By Erik Wieland
"ewieland"
I understand that it's difficult to top The Ultimate Kauai Guidebook, but this book reads like whole passages were lifted from that much better volume. What appears to be original reads like it was written by 15-year-olds, and is mostly just naive drivel. Don't waste your time or money.

 Poor Photography Aug 02, 2006
By William G. Eisenhauer
"Bill Eisenhauer"
Kauai is a beautiful island and words alone aren't enough to convey this. As such, any book on Kauai needs great pictures to complete the message. Unfortunately, this book contains black and white, low-resolution pictures. In some cases, you can hardly make out the object of the picture.
The poor quality of the pictures earns it poor ratings. The words may be fine, but words alone aren't enough in a book about Kauai.

 Better than expected. A resourceful guide to Kauai Dec 07, 2006
Hesitant to buy the book due to some reviews - we were pleased to find the guide is quite resourceful in visiting Kauai. The location coverage was very good and the planning chapters were quite helpful. The authors seem very sincere and clearly love the island. I'd recommend the book to others.

Dull pictures Dec 31, 2007
By M. M. Walcott
How can one turn beautiful, green, lush Kawai into boredom? Look at this book. The pictures are black and white, blurry, muddy (lack contrast), and appear to be dark grey holes in the page. Honestly I can't even start to read the text as the photo illustrations are so distracting.
