Product Description

Harvey Nichols magazine, Spring 2003
"Footprint’s superstylish travel guides are perfect for short break addicts."

Product Description
This pocket guide to the northernmost capital city in the world covers nightlife, whale-watching, weird lava formations, hot springs and people who catch puffins for dinner. It is intended for citybreakers looking for something schizophrenic, from Bjork's favourite bar to imitating James Bond and Lara Croft on the largest glacier in Europe, to relaxing spa breaks in the midnight sun and modern art seen in that peculiar Icelandic way. There is information on all-action sports, bohemian bars, modern art, hotels and clubs. The book also covers the best day and weekly trips to be made into the wild moonscape of Iceland, from the popular Blue Lagoon to Hafnarfjordur, the best place pixies and elves in Iceland and Husavik, a whale-watching centre.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pocket-size all-you-need guide, 28 Jan 2004
I liked this book,because it was written in a funny,interesting and informative way.In my opinion it did cater just about all the needs you can think of while staying there...I don't think we
(me and my girlfriend)ever left our hotel without it!The maps are accurate enough to get your bearings in Reykjavik.An additional bonus is the handy size;no use in dragging any coffee table sized books around town......

5.0 out of 5 stars Best little travel book I have ever bought., 13 Oct 2006
This is, quite simply, one of the most concise, accesible, easy to use and genuinely informative city guides I have ever bought. If you are going to Iceland for the first time, I would recommend using this to explore the capital city. Some of the suggestions in here are not the most obvious ones, and fill in the spaces between the more visited sites, such as the Halgrimskirka. For me, this is high praise, as I'm usually very critical of travel books. It fits neatly into an average-sized pocket too!
