 Great Iceland guide, up-to-date May 2, 2008
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
An excellent, chock-full guide written by someone who clearly spent a good deal of time not only exploring Iceland, but also getting to know the country, its history, and its people. The book's insights and recommendations were spot-on and culturally-attuned. I especially liked the suggestions of itineraries for different length visits (pp. 68-69). My friend and I went for a long weekend -- our goal was plenty of geothermal soaking, nature, and good local eats. Mission accomplished!

Andrew Evans clearly knows his stuff. His guide to Iceland is at the same time comprehensive and concise, encyclopedic and to-the-point. He provides both the intrepid backpacker and the urbane traveler with everything they'll need to know about how to get the most out of a visit to this exotic little island, without going broke, getting lost, freezing or getting scalded. His tips and insights are quirkily funny, preternaturally useful and spot-on in accuracy.
Leave the "Lonely Planet" behind--this book is all you'll need, regardless of whether you're doing a 2-night stopover on your way to Europe, or a summer-long, whole-island trek.
