3.0 out of 5 stars Fodor's lite isn't quite enough, March 6, 2003

This review is from: Fodor's Citypack San Francisco, 4th Edition (Paperback)
Fodor's sells a full size guide to San Francisco (as do many others) but they seem to have developed the Citypack as a field guide that you can carry with you on your trip. While the book does a decent job of condensing descriptions for the top attractions it can't begin to offer any real coverage of hotels and restaurants in its 96 pages.

Practically speaking, you will need a full sized guide to do any serious trip planning and if you get one of those then the need for the Citypack is limited at best. The map is useful but you can buy a roadmap separately for far less money. The plastic cover that is supposed to make it easy to carry is wrapped so tightly that you can barely get the book out and getting it back in without destroying it is almost impossible. Overall, this is a product with some helpful information but not enough to make it a must when planning a trip.
