Customer Reviews

most accurate, comprehensive and fun book on Sweden
Up to date and a mine of really useful information which other guides seem to miss - finds the small, out of the way places which make this fantastic country so vibrant. Whether you want Sweden's cities, villages, islands or the huge mass of countryside inbetween, this guide is exceptionally well balanced and a good read in itself.

Gets to the heart of a wonderful country
This book is thoroughly well researched and written. It avoids all of the traditional cliches and really gets to the heart of the country. I would recommend this book to anyone wanting to travel to Sweden.

don't leave home without one
An excellent guidebook. Detailed and informative, it's well worth having for the chapter on Stockholm alone.
