We have enjoyed all of the Rudy Maxa DVD travel series, especially in BluRay. The programs help when viewed prior to travel and are most enjoyable post-travel. Rudy captures and best of every location. He also enjoys food and beverage, which we appreciate in our household.

This review is from: Best of Travel: San Francisco Seattle Vancouver [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)

I'll give this three stars for the excellent presentation on Seattle, which was top notch and worth the price of the blu ray.

But San Francisco! This blu ray misses the best of that city entirely.

Why didn't it show Golden Gate Park? That is the best thing San Francisco has to offer. The Japanese Gardens there, or the Young Art Museum, or the Science Academy, or the botanical gardens? Golden Gate Park is the most unique, largest, and fabulous park outside of New York's Central Park. It is so incredible and has so many different things to do and see there that to omit it from this blu ray is a crime.

It touched on Haight Ashbury so briefly that it might as well have not shown it at all. San Francisco is famous for its inspiration of a whole generation of hippies in the 60s and 70s. Haight Ashbury still has many head shops and it is unique, because no where else in the world is there a Haight Ashbury.

This blu ray spent way too much time in Chinatown, which is nice, but it took time away from other amazing San Francisco attractions. It did show the making of sour dough bread, which is a San Francisco specialty, so that is a plus.

But how about the beaches? Why didn't it show the amazing Pacific Coast? You can see wildlife like starfish right there on the beach. Or focus a bit more closely on the street performers at the Piers, and visit a couple of restaurants instead of focusing on just one? What about the fresh seafood sold right there on the Pier in open markets? We all know about the cable cars, but what about the ferries? How about a trip up Nob Hill? What about the theater district or the night life?

You can tell I live close to San Francisco. This is a city that stands apart from others, and this blu ray most certainly did not get that message across.

But its presentation of Seattle was top notch, and worth the price of the blu ray. I offer no opinion on Vancouver because I have never been there.
