Book Reviews of The Complete Oahu, Honolulu and Waikiki Guidebook
Book Review: Needs Updating; has 5-yr out-of date information in 2006 edition :
Summary: 2 Stars
Purchased this book in addition to a few other guides to Oahu. Only a fair guidebook, there are much better ones in print (DK, Frommer's).
Specific comments- Maps could be better. They waste the color printing inside the back cover on advertising their other books- would have been much nicer to have included a color map of Honolulu instead. In the 2006 edition, it still lists Sacred Falls State Park as open (due to a landslide with fatalities, it was closed in May 1999 and has never reopened- this is an obvious lack of editing between editions-.)
Summary of The Complete Oahu, Honolulu and Waikiki Guidebook
The definitive travel guide to Hawaii's most popular, most populous, most taken-for-granted island. Of course, Oahu is home to Waikiki and Honolulu. But there's so much more to the island: the North Shore with a thousand memorable sunsets, the spires of the Koolau Mountains along the Windward Coast, Byodo-In Temple, picturesque Waimea Bay, snorkeling at Hanauma Bay, the valleys of the Waianae Range, Makapuu Beach Park, the Pali Highway, picture-perfect Kailua Beach: take our word for it, and come explore with us.This is the same author as for the Kauai, Maui and Big Island guidebooks; and he's roamed and roved and sniffed out every nook and cranny: historic Iolani Palace, Bishop Museum, Pearl Harbor, Punchbowl, the arboretum in Manoa Valley, the Diamond Head crater, historic relics by the score, tropical gardens, waterfalls, swimming holes, hiking trails, remote beaches (yes, on Oahu!), even Chris Hemmeter's megaresorts. Included are 10 user-friendly maps, 500-plus practical information listings for hotels, restaurants, luaus, events, recreation, beaches, golfing, water sports, tours, and more. Also hundreds of web addresses, Hawaiian glossary, and illustrations of Hawaiian flowers, fish and seashells. Same handy size as our other Hawaii books.Pacific Books
