Overwhelmingly green and moist, smelling of river mud and the salty sea, Costa Rica is the Earth's national park. While visitors can find a wealth of modern comforts in San Jose and the ever-expanding beach resorts along the Pacific shores, the true soul of the country lies beyond these plush enclaves in the accessible wilderness. The Traveler's Costa Rica Companion highlights the places that no visitor to Costa Rica should miss and surveys the country in terms of holiday themes - such as hiking, walking, rafting, touring, living it up or relaxing in palm-fringed comfort, or absorbing the local culture - that readers may personally relate to. Visitors will be led along the accessible jungle and rain forest trails, up volcanos and down riverbeds and on to scenes reminiscent of the film African Queen.

Full of insight and helpful hints, The Traveler's Hawaii Companion provides a fresh look at that magical archipelago in the mid-Pacific known to the land-starved nineteenth-century mariners as Owyhee, as a place of salty dreams and fevered visions. Initially ruled by Polynesian warrior kings, the islands today are populated by people of many races who brought with them their distinct cultures, customs and religions. Perhaps more than any other place in the world, it conjures up a perfumed picture-postcard scene of soft trade winds, frangipani blooms, rainbows over lush tropical valleys, the white surf rolling native outriggers to the shore and, of course, lovely native hula dancers. All of Hawaii's traditional romance is still there. Rediscover it with the Traveler's Hawaii Companion, your passport to these still-enchanted isels and thebest that they have to offer in beauty, charm, and soul.

Traveler's Tool Kit Mexico/Central America was named Best Guidebook for 2008 by planeta.com Rob Sangster and Tim Leffel are not typical travelers, nor is this a typical travel guide. Instead of rating Mexico's "best" (read: most expensive) hotels, the authors shows how to locate comfortable, affordable lodging anywhere in the country. Traveler's Tool Kit does the same for everything from dining to entertainment to sightseeing in Mexico, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Belize, Panama, Honduras, Nicaragua, and El Salvador. Individual sections cover it all: drafting itineraries, calculating costs, eco-sensitive travel, unusual tours, managing money, staying healthy, woman-alone travel, and much more. Sangster and Leffel show how to connect with a network of travelers who've discovered the most enjoyable things to do and can provide guidance on how much to pay for them. The book also tells how to memorialize the adventure through photography and blogging, and even how to earn money from the trip after returning home. Sangster and Leffel are both authoritative and encouraging, drawing on years of experience to help travelers maximize the fun, savings, and security without compromising quality.
