Book Reviews of Frommer's San Francisco 2009 (Frommer's Complete Guides)

Book Review: Everything you need in one book!
Summary: 5 Stars

I purchased this book originally simply to help plan out our trip and learn more about San Francisco before we went. Once we started to tour around San Francisco, we simply couldn't go anywhere without it. The bus/trolley map was extremely useful for getting around the City. When our plans changed, as they did often due to weather or just being tired, we were able to look up a place to eat or how to get home quickly. The recommendations this book made were great. We loved Cha Cha Cha's tapas and sangria and were able to learn more about where we were and what we were seeing then the average traveler. This book offered much more than I was able to find online and was an all inclusive guide to the city that we found ourselves opening very often to figure out what we were seeing or which way we should walk. MUST BUY! Great book!
