Greater Than a Tourist- Seattle Washington USA: 50 Travel Tips from a Local (Greater Than a Tourist Washington)

I’m a native Seattleite: born and raised, and I can confirm that the places in this book are where us locals eat, drink, and play.

It doesn’t serve as a detailed review of all the restaurants in its pages, but rather a curated, short and sweet checklist of places a genuine Seattle local would go for brunch, dinner after work, or on a date night out.

I’ve made it my summer foodie mission to revisit the old friends found in these pages: 3 down, 50-ish more to go. -bobbysaywhat

Greater Than a Tourist- Chania Crete Greece: 50 Travel Tips from a Local (Greater Than a Tourist Greece)

For my first visit to Crete to see the homeland of my grandparents, I was armed with many different books, maps and brochures. However, this book wins the prize as the easiest to use to pick out the things you would like to do and her reviews were spot on. This helps guide you through some spots that not so many tourists visit and that allow you to enjoy the culture of the island. I agree that sometimes it took Google to figure out where the destination was but again, this is a winner. -Marilyn Denney

Greater Than a Tourist- Trinidad & Tobago: 50 Travel Tips from a Local (Greater Than a Tourist Caribbean)

Greater Than a Tourist- Barcelona Catalunya Spain: 50 Travel Tips from a Local (Greater Than a Tourist Spain)

Greater than a Tourist- East London United Kingdom: 50 Travel Tips from a Local (Greater Than a Tourist United Kingdom)

What a wonderfully delightful book! Not only is it written like a pro, but it is not just a book. It’s a script. Sophie Foreman has infused her own personality into every section, and even though everything is grammatically correct, it has a casual, friendly manner to it that is so necessary to make the reader feel that the author is speaking directly to them.

London is my absolutely favourite city. When I went there, I felt as though I was finally back home. I knew instinctively where everything was. I visited many of the places she mentioned, but most of them were new to me. She has written a very comprehensive account of everything a tourist would want to see and experience in the city.

Thank you for the experience of reading your book! It brought me right back to East London!

I was the editor for this book, and I look forward to narrating it for Audible release. -LindaVINE VOICE

Greater Than a Tourist- New Orleans Louisiana USA: 50 Travel Tips from a Local (Greater Than a Tourist United States)

Julie Sullivan has written a really delightful book, with so many details about places, and suggestions that only a local or frequent visitor could know! In addition, she has a warm, homey, New Orleans style of speech that only adds to the overall experience. You will feel as if you already there, and speaking with one of the locals. I have visited New Orleans, and recognized many of the places she mentioned, but there were also many that I had not seen. Now I want to go back to New Orleans to see them!

I was the editor for this book, and now look forward to narrating it as well for Audible release. -LindaVINE VOICE

Greater Than a Tourist- Los Angeles California USA: 50 Travel Tips from a Local (Greater Than a Tourist California)

Moni is a very skillful writer, with a very fluid style, presenting everything in a friendly, casual manner. She draws the reader in with creative tip headings and many personal accounts of what to look for during their trip. She shows great enthusiasm for all the different places in LA, and presents them in entertaining ways. I live in LA, and I must say, she left nothing out – not even Disneyland, which is, as she says, a must for anyone to visit, even if it is out in Anaheim! This is a well-thought-out guide to all the great spots in LA, and provides the reader with so much more than what a regular travel guide has to offer.

I was the editor of this book, and I will also narrate her book for Audible release. My congratulations to Moni on a comprehensive account of LA and its many attractions! -LindaVINE VOICE

GREATER THAN A TOURIST – Isla Holbox Quintana Roo Mexico: 50 Travel Tips from a Local (Greater Than a Tourist Mexico)

This book of 50 tips for visiting Isla Holbox in Quintana Roo, Mexico is a little gem. I have visited the island 12 times since 2005 and have found that Ivan Cadiz is an excellent guide for all things about the island. Over the years, he has provided us with excellent advice about things to do (and not do) there. Therefore I am pleased to see that he has written this book that will give ideas to others who are visiting. Cadiz’s enthusiasm for his adopted home comes through clearly and that enthusiasm makes the book both informative and fun to read. He offers ideas for places to eat, things to do, and places to see that you wouldn’t find in more traditional travel guides. He also gives advice about how to help respect and protect the island, something very important as more and more people discover it every year. I highly recommend the book. -Lucile B.
