Customer Reviews

pocket essential
If you have ever bought a Berlitz guide before, you will know that within the cover, you will find concise & simply written information about your chosen destination. This one is no different.

Dont be fooled by the pocket size of the guide, the information is complete.

Pocket size advantage is no more evident than when visiting Reykjavik in the winter. Hands will spend more time in gloves than out in the open.
