5.0 out of 5 stars A Good Primer for Travel in Florida, May 31, 2004

This is an excellent guide for those interested in exploring beyond the confines of Central Florida and the theme parks. From Perdido Key on the edge of the Panhandle to Key West and Dry Tortugas, you get a good overview of what Florida has to offer. With photos on almost every page and concise information, you'll be ready to hit the road and give yourself a complete Florida vacation. The book does have a section on the WDW and the other theme parks, and if that's your main interest, it would be better to get one of the many dedicated guides that cover the manufactured fun.

I bought it for my girlfriend before our trip to Florida, and it helped her visualize things better than researching on the internet. I grew up in Jupiter, FL and now live out west, but I learned at least 100 new places and things that I didn't know, especially around Miami and The Keys where we were going.

I love this kind of guide for all the images they show of the places you are going to see. The only problem I have is that there is no much information about accomodations. For that I had to look into another guide or online.
