Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
The Hidden guidebook series hot-peppers its pages with little arrows that point to a multitude of off-the-tourist-track sites.
About the Author
Hidden Florida offers a better option. While it tells readers how to best enjoy the top spots in Miami, Orlando and the Keys, it also leads to lesser-visited locales that reveal the natural beauty and local character of the Sunshine State. Hundreds of beaches and parks are described.

Everglades, Miami, Key Largo Trip,
By
This review is from: Hidden Florida: Including Miami, Orlando, Fort Lauderdale, Tampa Bay, the Everglades, and the Keys (Paperback)
I used this book for planning a quick trip to Everglades, Miami and Key Largo. I found it to have a good mix of history, attactions and restaurant reviews. We ate at several places recommended by the book.
One thing that would make it much more useful would be to include a fold out map so that you can see more detail of a larger area. I found I had to keep flipping back and forth between maps in the book.

This review is from: Hidden Florida: Including Miami, Orlando, Fort Lauderdale, Tampa Bay, the Everglades, and the Keys (Hidden Travel) (Paperback)
We have used the guide on every Florida trip we take. Living in Orlando, we pretty much know the ropes here in town. We, as a couple, visit other Florida towns (areas) at least twice per month searching for the perfect beach, event, restaurant or attraction. It is great to use the book to find quirkly places to eat and visit. It's been 100% accurate in it's estimations of quality and pricing. We make notes in ours if we find new spots. One day we'll send our comments to the authors!
When traveling to Savannah recently, we bought the Hidden Savannah book and were just as satified! I cannot recommend a book any higher! No Chamber or tour guide has been able to top the info in this wonderful guide.
