Book Description

Michelin Green Guide: Scandanavia/Finland September 16, 2009
The long-standing Michelin Travel Guides are an ideal travel companion for travelers who really want to connect with the world. Get to know the local way of life through detailed background information on the country, people, and culture. Quickly identify the best places to visit using Michelin's star rating system. The best sites are highlighted on the sites map or you can follow a pre-planned driving tour. With the Michelin Travel Guide to Scandinavia & Finland, witness the Nordic passion for functional design and a strong connection to the sea, as Scandinavia beckons you to step outside Copenhagen for modern sculpture in Louisiania, fly over the narrow inlets of Norway's arctic fjords, or take to the water to verify Stockholm's status as "Venice of the North."

1.0 out of 5 stars WHOOPS! MICHELIN DON'T KNOW A DANE FROM A FINN!, March 29, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
DO NOT TOUCH THIS MICHELIN GUIDE!

Page 421 of the guide is the start of the Finland section. At least it should be!

Only on page 421 the Michelin Guide provides the following information to start You off in your quest to learn about Finland:

Capital City of Finland - - COPENHAGEN

Most important Finnish Towns - - Ålborg, Odense, Århus

Yes, that's right!

Michelin's guide is unable to cross the Baltic from DENMARK to FINLAND.

I bought my copy from Amazon March 1st 2010 - - so, we're not describing something old!

3.0 out of 5 stars Michelin Tour guide to Finland, July 8, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Having used Michelin guides in the 80's and 90's to travel around Europe, I find this version of a guide to the Nordic area and Finland to be lacking in the details and skimpy in coverage. It appears Michelin changed formats or never has put out a good guide to the north countries. I find all guides I have reviewed to be rather lacking and see an oppotunity for someone to come out with a decent guide to the country as a whole and not just a few popular sites. I am not taking this quide with me on the trip given it's limited content.
