Frequently Asked Questions
Do I get all four islands or just one?
A single Pocket Edition or Complete Edition covers one island. If you're island-hopping or haven't decided yet, the All 4 Pocket Editions Bundle ($24.95) or All 4 Complete Editions Bundle ($59.95) gets you every island in one purchase. Combos pair one island's Complete Edition with a personalized Trip Planner for that same island.
