Awesome travel book!

I purchased this book for my sister prior to her moving from CA to Oahu AND she loves it!!! Last year I purchased the same book covering the Big Island - I read it from cover to cover before vacationing on the Island and it was like being on a professional guided tour! I highly recommend this read and give all my thanks to the author for the wonderful memories!

Indepensable!!!

This book was the ONLY one we used after a few days in Hawaii, simply because it is the best!! Driving directions were flawless, prices accurate, and the special tips were great. We started referring to it as "The Bible", as in, "Well, what does the Bible say, should we go there?" You will get so much more out of your vacation with this book in hand!

A must have!

I used this book along with "Honolulu, Waikiki and O'ahu" (Lonely Planet) on a wonderful trip to Oahu. I particularly liked the full color maps and photos of the beautiful island. The advice was down-to-earth and honest. There were helpful pointers about when to go to Chinatown, where to go and what to skip. The restaurant descriptions were great along with the synopsis of each hotel. They rated our hotel a bit harsh (ResortQuest Waikiki Beach Hotel) but we forgive them!

Wonderful guidebook

I have used the Oahu as well as the Kauai books by this author and highly recommend them to anyone traveling in the Hawaiian Islands. He has searched out the information not readily available to tourists and has made it easy for us to use. Very entertaining reading and VERY informative.

Essential Guide

I bought this book for a week trip to Oahu, and it proved to be a very worthwhile purchase. The maps are great for navigating the endlesssly twisty Honolulu roadway system (for example pointing out that the exits marked 'Waikiki' going east on H1 are not the exits you're looking for). Tips about beaches, hiking and restaurants were also useful. The book is easy to flip through and find relevant info, light (I carried it around most of the time i went out) and smallish (fits easily in my medium sized purse but not my small one). It's written in a light hearted but informative manner. I would have given it 5 stars if it had more information about non-chain places to eat (specifically breakfast around Waikiki) and if it had included more information about the bus system.
