Day Trips from Kansas City,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Day Trips from Kansas City, 15th: Getaway Ideas for the Local Traveler (Day Trips Series) (Paperback)
The book is an excellent resource for planning trips for the Mid-America Miata car club. As with any road trip book it becomes out of date quite quickly. You make your own notes and drive on.
I also like the websites because they cut down on some of the going out on site to view the areas. Though I never plan a trip without a pre drive any information on these locations helps in-the planning. A very good book and tool to use and read for trips around Kansas City. Ron
4.0 out of 5 stars
Great resource,
This review is from: Day Trips from Kansas City, 15th: Getaway Ideas for the Local Traveler (Day Trips Series) (Paperback)
As a new Kansas City resident, I have enjoyed discovering the city. This book has gotten me and my family out for fun quirky excursions out of the city. Map is helpful, as are the websites listed. I originally had taken it out from the library, but have found that I need my own copy.
