good price for a travel video but....
this is a real bargain for a travel video but like the other reviewers has said, the red car in this video is annoying. most probably the ford motor companysponsored this video to show off their taurus car. another problem is that each place was only given like 5 minutes of viewing which i think is not enough plusit only showed the scenic spots and did not emphasize the people and its culture in each place. reader's digest which is known for good writing did not doa good job here.

don't waste your money...
You actually see more of the little red car (a Ford...did Ford sponsor the original tv broadcast, I wonder?) than you do anything that I'd call "scenery"...lots of parades and roadside trashy touristy stuff - and the film crew has an inexplicable fascination with traffic lights in the downtown areas of small towns...I have no idea what that's about, but very little it the way of scenery. For instance, if the sequence in disk 1 about Mount Desert Island in Maine was all you had to go on, you wouldn't think the place was worth visiting, much less one of the most beautiful places in the entire country which it is. You'd have a really good idea of what that stupid red car looked like though!I'm shocked that Reader's Digest let its name be attached to something this cheesy...stay away!

Armchair traveler loves it
I bought this DVD for my father-in-law, who is too old to travel. He watches travel videos instead. It's one of his favorites. He watched it twice within a couple weeks of receiving it. He raved about the quality of the video and interesting narration. On the advice of an old man, who loves to watch travel videos, you won't be disappointed with this one.

Scenic drives
Scenic drives,....with this on the big screen it makes me feel like i am on one of my own trips. One year i took a trip i dubbed the national and state park vacation. Because of my love for our national parks and scenic byways i bought this DVD. And last year i went to 40 state and local parks, 10 National parks, saw three Zoo's and visited over 40 lighthouses. Great DVD!!

Very picturesque!
Great video for travel without having to leave the house...or enjoy it to see if you want to visit a particular location.

So/so
It was a so/so DVD. Usually Reader's Digest DVD's are better then this. The DVD went too fast. It would have been better if there was not as many places covered in that time frame. The photography was wonderful.
