These online guides offer abridged versions of the popular travel books. In addition to the standard travel info (accommodations, sightseeing, dining, etc.), the site offers many great resources, such as travel advisories, health and safety tips, and suggestions for trips by interests (art, nature, sports, etc.). There are also traveler's forums, and a great collection of web links for each destination. The different sites offer their own special features, so it is worthwhile to check out all three when planning a trip.
