4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Pictures, Big On Culture, June 20, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Tahiti (Insight Compact Guide Tahiti) (Paperback)

It's a beautiful little book with gorgeous pictures of people and places. Unfortunately, the food and hotel guide is minimal; this could be due to the size of the islands, but I feel this book is best suited for those who want to know more about the history and culture of Tahiti (hence why it's a publication in conjunction with the Discovery Channel). If culture and history are what you're looking for, this little book does a great job.
