Overview

With city sophistication and small-town charm, Wisconsin offers much more than cheese!


No other guidebook on Wisconsin is as comprehensive or as passionate about all the riches nestled between Lakes Michigan and Superior. As with all Explorer's Guides, within these pages you'll find detailed information about lodging and dining options—including where to find native dishes like kringle and booyah—in the tourist hotspots and the rural escapes. You'll go up the coastline to the lighthouses, cherry orchards, and antiques markets of Door County; stroll through the offbeat shops and restaurants of Madison; and head inland where over 1,200 miles of bicycle paths and hiking trails weave among 15,000 glacial lakes. From Milwaukee's ethnic festivals to Green Bay Packers games, spectacular scenic drives through Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest to the water parks of the Dells, with this indispensable guide, all the information you need to have a great time in Wisconsin is right here!
