5.0 out of 5 stars One of the 2 best guidebooks we used on our trip
We used several guidebooks to plan a long weekend in southern Louisiana in connection with a family wedding in Lafayette. This was one of the most useful of the books.

The author gives a short 1 or 2-page pithy description of each excursion along with good directions.

Slightly more useful (to us) as a guidebook was Cajun Country Guide by Macon Fry and Julie...

1.0 out of 5 stars Book is Out-of-Date
This book is so out-of-date in March 2009 that it was practically useless for anything other than a starting point to do research on the Web.

This review is from: Louisiana Dayride: Fifty-two Short Trips from New Orleans (Paperback)
We used several guidebooks to plan a long weekend in southern Louisiana in connection with a family wedding in Lafayette. This was one of the most useful of the books.

The author gives a short 1 or 2-page pithy description of each excursion along with good directions.

Slightly more useful (to us) as a guidebook was Cajun Country Guide by Macon Fry and Julie Posner. I say this because that book also covers lodging (we were traveling overnight).

Two final notes: Neither guidebook covers the city of New Orleans itself; and every guidebook we read had the wrong area codes for many telephone numbers (Louisiana has 2 brand-new area codes -- 225 and 337)

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Have!, July 24, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Louisiana Dayride: Fifty-two Short Trips from New Orleans (Paperback)
This book is a must have if you're unfamiliar with the Louisiana area. The book allowed us to better plan our trip and make the most of our time to get in all the site we read about.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is a must read for anyone visiting Louisiana., May 29, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Louisiana Dayride: Fifty-two Short Trips from New Orleans (Paperback)
I was able to use the information to customize an entire 1 week vacation for my family. If you like "out of the way" places and "different" things to see and do, this is the book for you. There should be a book like this for each major city in the United States.
