What visitors are saying about Bell’s Travel Guides!

I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude for your Alaska Mapbook.” We recently visited Alaska and drove over 3000 miles in an RV for two and a half weeks. I purchased “Alaska for Dummies” and the “Milepost” before our trip. Your book was more useful than either of them, and it was free! We were never without it. It was invaluable for our entire trip. It kept us from getting lost and gave us great history and in-formation on all the different places we visited. The “Alaska Map-book” is set up very user friendly. Thank you and your sponsors for such a great job. -Mildren Morrison

I would just like to mention how happy I am with the Bell’s Travel Guide. I just returned from a 7-day cruise from Anchor-age. Before taking the cruise we spent 4 days driving around Anchorage, your guide was flawless in getting us to the places we wanted to see. After starting out in Anchorage we drove to Denali and Fairbanks. Your pinpoint accuracy of scenic highlights was a big help. We were able to plan our photo stops without a glitch. We will recommend your guide to anyone traveling this region, please promote your book, as it should be with every traveler in Anchorage and Alaska. Thank you for making our trip even more enjoyable -Ken Ward

I love my copy of your guide-I HAVE LEARNED MORE FROM IT THAN FROM MY ACTUAL VISIT TO ALASKA. -Nada Joksimovich
