Book Review - Lonely Planet - Georgia and the Carolinas

This guide is stuffed full of useful maps, information and where to go. I also love how colorful this guide is starting with the colored tabs on the book edge. Starting with the red section or "Plan Your Trip" - a colorful map, Top 20 things to do or see, Need to Know including getting around, a useful "If You Like" guide by suggestions for Culture, Food, Craft Beer, History, and more. Month by Month festivals guide. Several suggested itineraries. Outdoor Activities. Eat and Drink like a Local (this is really useful if you are like me and looking for those local delicacies). Travel with Children. The next chunk of the book is divided into regions featuring places to visit, food stops, City Walk maps, off the beaten track callouts, accommodations, and more.

This guide was published in 2019, so be sure to verify your plans before heading out in case of any changes in hours or operations.

Book Review - Explorer's Guide Charleston, Savannah and Coastal Islands by Cecily McMillan

I've visited these areas and still found many new places to explore in this handy little guide. Each area starts with an introduction, maps, general overview of getting there and getting around followed by places of interest (things to do such as museums), activities (golfing, fishing, etc), where to eat and accommodations. You can find sections calling out places just outside the city worth visiting. Some climate or temperature information especially on hurricanes which hit the shorelines. Very well organized and easy to read.

Although this is the 9th edition of this guide, it was published in 2021. So be sure to verify all the hours and information before heading out on your trip since Covid might have forced unexpected, long-lasting changes.
