Summary: Favorite American Travel Magazine

I travel quite frequently, and this magazine provides LOADS of useful information. They always have good coverage of American travel destinations, usually about equally split with international holiday spots. Budget Travel succeeds greatly in capturing the feel of the place they are reporting on, along with quite a few "insider" tips. I like to know where locals like to go, I don't want to be scammed by tourists spots. I have already gone to several restaurants and places recommended by them and stayed at two hotels, and have been very pleased. My only gripe is somethings aren't always completely in a budget catagory, but thankfully those are far and few between. If you love this magazine also check out Lonely Planets travel magazine, which is my all time favorite travel mag.
