Guide Review - Insight Kids' Maps: New York City

Whenever I have visitors staying with me, the first thing I make sure they have before they venture into the city is a good map -- and this FlexiMap from Insight Guides is perfect for families traveling in New York City. Without the hassle of carrying around a guidebook, this map offers directions and information for a wide variety of kid-friendly and family-oriented attractions and activities throughout New York City. There's a map of the subway system on the back, when the map is folded, which is great to have. Indexes allow you to locate attractions by name, and the helpful maps allow you to plan your trip so that you can conquer all the destinations in a neighborhood with ease. Coverage is limited to primary family attractions, but they represent activities in all five boroughs. Armed with this map, you and your kids can get see New York City easily, but make sure to find some family friendly restaurants before you head out -- this map doesn't have that information.
