Hidden Hawaii (Paperback)

by Ray Riegert (Author)

Editorial Reviews

Review
>From lodging to local dining establishments, this provides off-the-beaten-path advice for any heading to any of the Hawaiian islands. There are plenty of general Hawaii travel books out there; but most feature better-known or tourist destinations. This examines offbeat choices which promise high-quality romance, seclusion, or exceptional regional experiences. The pointer markers for 'hidden' places help easily distinguish better-known from offbeat. -- Midwest Book Review --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful resource for the adventurous, December 7, 1999

By A Customer

I also disagree with the reviewer who did not find Hidden Hawaii to be helpful... My husband and I purchased Hidden Hawaii to provide us with the opportunities not available in the larger tourist trap books - we were thrilled! We prefer the more secluded, unusual sites, which we were treated to time and again. I highly recommend this book to anyone with a sense of adventure and direction.

4.0 out of 5 stars If you sight see on your own, take this book with you!, September 27, 1999

By A Customer

If you enjoy touring on your own, this is a great drive along reference. We found many of the things to see were off the main track. Hidden Hawaii guides you to attractions in sequence as you drive. The only thing missing is flora and fauna. This should be the bible for first time Hawaii visitors!

4.0 out of 5 stars Find your own personal paradise., September 15, 1999

By A Customer

I take great exception to the August 23 review from California. I have now purchased my third edition of Hidden Hawaii since I used the 1st edition for my first trip to Hawaii. The islands are certainly the most wonderful destination in the World, but I do think my intimate knowledge of the hidden pockets of paradise have actually made Hawaii better for us than it would have been. I can't count the number of times we've followed elaborate directions for miles into the wilderness to find ourselves under our own personal waterfall. And by the way, Garden of the Gods is in the book's index. The text gives clear directions. It is also on the book's Lanai map.
