Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

This opening fold-out contains a general map of Hawaii to help you visualize the way the islands are explored in this guide, and 4 pages of valuable information, handy tips and useful addresses.

Discover Hawaii through 8 sections and 8 maps

Oahu - Waikiki
Oahu — Honolulu Historic Center
Oahu — Suburban Honolulu and Eastern Oahu
Oahu — North Shore
Big Island — Hilo
Big Island — Kamuela and Kailua-Kona
Maui
Lanai, Molokai, Kauai

For each district there is a double-page of addresses (restaurants — listed in ascending order of price — cafés, bars, and stores) followed by a fold-out map for the relevant area with the essential places to see (indicated on the map by a star *). These places are by no means all that Hawaii has to offer but to us they are unmissable. The grid-referencing system (A B2) makes it easy for you to pinpoint addresses quickly on the map.

Transportation and hotels in Hawaii
The last fold-out consists of a transportation map and 5 pages of practical information that includes a selection of hotels.

A thematic index lists all the sites and addresses featured in this guide.

Recensione

The Washington Post says, “The map guide lets you be inconspicuous: it’s as small and light as a novella, and its flip-out maps could pass as a flyer to a cool club.”

“Make sure you never lose your way in a strange city. Each of the Knopf MapGuides captures its city’s pith in a package as small as a passport wallet...”– Real Simple

“Knopf MapGuides are handy, practical and perfect for those of us who are slightly impaired when it comes to map-reading. You don’t have to search a huge crackling sheet with a microscopic index for one of 10,000 dots on the map...The extraordinary quality of the books’ beautiful hues and heavy paper also give these $8.95 guides an evocative quality that stands apart from the glossy, garish look of most travel books.” – Marin Independent Journal

“A good, handy portable item for a quick trip” – San Francisco Chronicle

“We love Knopf’s smart new map guides.” – Travel & Leisure
