This book has been sooo helpful in planning our first family trip together up the coast! I was absolutely amazed. It gives you ideas for activities that are popular along with the hidden secrets of each area that are usually only known by the locals. Every section includes kid-friendly restaurants and hotels. There is an entire section on the best beaches and parks for children as well. One of the best parts is that at the beginning of each activity description, it gives you a 4-star scale on how each age range (up to seniors) will enjoy the activity. It also gives you ALL the important information on that activity such as how much it costs, whether or not food is available, stroller/wheelchair/locker rentals, how much time you can anticipate spending there and MANY other helpful tips and information.

I also bought the Fodor's California guide, but this has been SO much more informative and helpful for a family with children. Again - a MUST if you are planning a trip with you entire family.

Great book. I love how they split out how a particular place will be enjoyed by different age groups using a 5-star rating. Invaluable!!
