The Insight Travel Guides are great,
By
This review is from: Denmark (Insight Guide Denmark) (Paperback)
These guides are great. If you're in the market for travel guides then make a visit to your local book store and check the various offerings to find one that matches the criterea you're looking for, it's worth the time as each publisher has a slightly different approach to how they create their guide books. The Lonely Planet guides are quality as well, and their website has lots of good information.
