The Smart Traveler’s Passport: 399 Tips from Seasoned Travelers (Paperback)

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! high-security concerns.
