5.0 out of 5 stars
Very good, very comprehensive,
By JRK "jkunz" (N.H.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lonely Planet Scandinavian & Baltic Europe (Scandinavian and Baltic Europe, 4th ed) (Paperback)
Give credit to Lonely Planet for packing all of these areas together in one book. It would have been very easy to keep Iceland, Faroe Islands separate, the Baltic States separate, and a St. Petersburg city guide in a different book or just with Lonely Planet Russia. Besides the fact that the area it covers is very comprehensive, here's why I like this book over others. Lonely Planet does a great job covering budget options for food, hostels/pensions/hotels, and activities. The city maps are extremely comprehensive. For example, there are exact points for each place to stay, place to eat, and other important landmarks (train station, post office, bus station, sights, etc.) in each city map. How easy is that! In addition, Lonely Planet is the best guide to cover how to get there, get around, and get away. I find that many guides only assume you are getting around by Eurail or bus. And unlike other guides that treat only the major cities and outlying areas (Frommers, for example), Lonely Planet is just as concerned with telling you where to find the smaller, less-crowded parts of Scandinavia and Baltic Europe (Norway's fjords, Iceland's hot springs, etc.) Without a doubt, get this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Easy and interesting Scandanavia,
By gabsta (sydney, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lonely Planet Scandinavian & Baltic Europe (Scandinavian and Baltic Europe, 4th ed) (Paperback)
Lonely Planet Scandanavia made my recent journey up north easier. the book covers nearly every aspect necessary for travel. The additional information regarding history and culture gave me a rare insight into the cities i visited. The range of accomodations, however, is limited but sufficient.
