Summary: "Simply Amazing!"

I stumbled onto this travel guide and it truly made all the difference! I recently took a road trip from San Diego up to San Francisco. My boyfriend and I chose to stick mainly to Highway One. This lonely planet coastal book was the best information guide ever..We got to read about the main highlights of each town including accommodations, restaurants,activities, shopping and price ranges for everything. We tried all of their "top picks" and they never failed to disappoint. This is a must have guide!
