The Smart Traveler's Passport December 1, 2007 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
Contains some good ideas -- most of them related to how and what to pack. Unfortunately the majority of the tips are rather specific (e.g. how to save some money when in a specific town) and don't really seem fitting for a book with general advice. Guess this kind of information would make more sense on a web site, but it's good reading when stuck at an airport.

Great Travel Tips September 3, 2007 2 out of 5 found this review helpful
This book is packed with lots of great travel tips, and includes chapters on planning your trip, before you go, on the journey, safety and security, home away fro mhome, getting around, spending wisely, out and about, and personal connections. I am quoted in the book too! This little book would be a great gift for the first time traveler or seasoned traveler.
Great little guide book to keep you in the know. August 24, 2007 3 out of 5 found this review helpful
A lot of this book is stuff you already know, but what you don't know can save a lot of money and headache in the future. If you are a frequent traveler (like I am,) this is a great book for you.
Gee, I didn't know that! July 22, 2007 15 out of 19 found this review helpful
This book is a compilation of reader-submitted tips from the 20 Travel Tips feature in Budget Magazine. A tip of mine appeared in their February 2007 issue, unfortunately I think it was a little too late to be included here. So, yes, I think I'm a little biased, but there are some cool ideas here. It's nicely divided into sections based on all parts of your trip. The safety section is particularly good and important, of course. It does tend to focus more on foreign travel, so if you only take two trips to grandma's house a year, it might not be worthwhile for you. But otherwise, give it a shot!
