This multimedia reference cd has travel information on over 3,000 attractions in the United States, with over 6,000 color photos and 80 minutes of motion video. It uses an interface similar to the same publisher's Adventures cd but it has a database that is more than twice as large. It has two cd-roms - one for the East and one for the West. There's a playlist for the videos and a state-by-state slide show to pique your interest. It lists events, attractions, festivals, theaters, museums, historic sites, national parks, professional sports teams, and more. You'll find up-to-date descriptions, addresses, phone numbers, and hours, as well as a locator map. Through its easy-access Windows interface, this travel guide brings thousands of interesting bits of information to the screen in seconds. Family vacation planners can search for activities suitable for their children, and business travelers can get information about the city or state they're going to. You can use the menu of listings based on geographical area and type of activity, or you can create a custom search based on a variety of criteria. The listed items include aquariums, zoos, theme parks, museums, science centers, agricultural fairs, festivals, historic sites, national parks, dance, music, theater, sports tours, cultural centers, and more. |
