Publisher's Synopsis
A MAJOR EXPANSION: The new features of the guide will have more maps, itineraries, and hotel and restaurant reviews. We'll cover the region from top to bottom, with everything travelers need to know about the main attractions -- from beaches to golf courses to antebellum homes -- and plenty of new excursions off the beaten path. A KEY DESTINATION: The Carolinas and Georgia are where tourists come to experience the best of the South. From genteel Charleston to bustling Atlanta, from Hilton Head Island to the Great Smoky Mountains, these states contain top-flight recreational and cultural attractions that draw travelers of all stripes. MORE MUSCLE THAN THE COMPETITION: With the changes to this edition, Fodor's Carolinas & Georgia goes from being the 90-pound weakling of the field to the Charles Atlas, with more thorough coverage than any comparable guide. MORE SOUTHERN CHARM: Not only are we bigger than Frommer's and Lonely Planet, but thanks to our team of local writers, we're able to provide more authentic insight into the attractions and the culture.
