I extensively used the Insight Guides "Scandinavia" guidebook while preparing for a recent trip to Denmark, Sweden, and Norway, and was extremely pleased with the content and illustrations. One thing that sets this series apart from most other guidebooks are the excellent numerous color illustrations. The photography is superior, and the maps are useful for planning and general orientation. The text is similarly excellent, and helped a great deal in planning the trip, especially for the Copenhagen and Bergen portions of the itinerary. There is excellent general information in the back of the book on accommodations, weather (a big factor in a Scandinavian trip), culture, transportation and a bevy of other issues of keen interest to any traveler. Although I did take the book on the trip, I actually found it more useful in the planning stages of the trip as it is relatively large and heavy. I defaulted to a small pocket guidebook and locally obtained maps when out and about.
I recommend this book without hesitation: it is comprehensive, detailed, accurate (in my personal experience), and enjoyable to read.
