Customer Reviews

Not my 1st choice
Purchased both the Frommers and Fodors books (same title). The Fodors book seems to provide more information and in a much more readable format.

The Best traveler's companion
Of all the travel books, Frommer's are the best. The Caribbean 2008 is a solid book, the information is updated with a number of handy hints. The Caribbean, in general, offers fewer insights than larger countries one can travel so it does not get the highest rating.
