Searching the Entire Site

The search box in the upper right hand corner allows you to search the full text of the entire site. As Frommer's has over 100,000 pages of information, we suggest you make your search terms as specific as possible. For example, entering "Paris Hilton" will give you a more manageable number of results than simply typing in "Hilton."


Using Wild Card Searches

However, our search engine does supports wild card searches which allow you to find listings with words that contain a particular string of letters. To conduct a wild card search, use an * (asterisk) after the text string you would like the results to contain. For example, if you enter analog*, your results will turn up all listings containing "analog," "analogue," "analogy," etc.


Finding Information on a Specific Destination

Frommers.com has information on thousands of destinations worldwide. You can browse our Destinations section, a convenient, easy-to-navigate area of Frommers.com where you can plan an entire trip based on your desired travel location.

In addition to the Destinations section, you can always search for information about your trip destination in the full site search box in the upper right hand corner.


Searching for Guidebooks

You can find any guidebook that Frommer's publishes by visiting our bookstore where you can browse by destination or category. Another option is to use the search box in the upper right hand corner and specify "Bookstore" in the pull-down.


Searching for Deals

Our Deals & News section allows you to find the specific type of deal you�re after, such as air, cruise, package, hotel or car. Additionally, you may search all of our deals by specifying "Deals/News" in the pull-down next to the search box in the upper right hand corner.
