Since it focusses on a couple of places extensively, with handy, informative city walks and lots of info about eating, sleeping and transportation, but skips entire parts of the Scandinavic countries, this guide is very good, and perhaps even more useful than the Lonely Planet, if you only visit those places described in the book and not the rest. Not all major destinations are listed, e.g. Trondheim and Göteborg are missing, hence my 4 out of 5 stars, but even with those cities missing I though it a very useful book. The city walks are excellent and somehow we often ended up in restaurants that were listed.I bought the ebook version which was very convenient on both phone and tablet, the only disadvantage being that you have to browse quite a bit between the city walk maps and the (very informative) written description.Places described in this guide book:- Copenhagen- Near Copenhagen (Roskilde and a few other sights)- Central Denmark (Ã†rÃ¸, Ã†rÃ¸skÃ¸bing, Odense)- Jutland (Aarhus, Legoland, Jelling, Himmelbjerget, Silkeborg (but oddly enough no mention is made of the main sight of the town, the Silkeborg Museum with the naturally mummified corpse of the Tollund man), Ribe)- Oslo- A tour suggestion via FlÃ¥m, Aurland and the Undredal- Sognefjord- Gudbrandsdal Valley and Jotunheimen Mountains- Bergen- South Norway (Stavanger, Setesdal, Hovden, Kristiansand)- Stockholm- Near Stockholm (Sigtuna, Uppsala)- Stockholm's Archipelago- Southeast Sweden (Växjö, Glass Country, Kalmar, Öland)- Helsinki- Tallinn

As a Rick Steves follower, I am a bit sad to give this guide a 4-star review rather than the more typical 5-star nod I would normally expect to write. But this guide has some problems potential buyers should be aware of. Our long-planned trip to Scandinavia included emphasis on the Malmo, Sweden and Stavanger, Norway areas. Malmo (Sweden's 3rd largest city) is excluded except for essentially less-than-a-page footnote treatment within the lengthy Copenhagen sections, and Stavanger (likewise, Norway's 3rd largest city) includes its own section but the tone is essentially "why bother" - "unenthusiastic" would be an overstatement. Most of the book's other content rises to the typical Steves level, but again, I felt like I must comment on the omissions. Maybe the flaws can be ascribed to trying to put all of Scandinavia (including Estonia) into the same book - at 800 pages as it is, was that too much to shoot for?

Good book but a bit outdated. Stating the obvious, you should check each attraction's website for the most accurate information.Descriptions about the culture and history of each country and region were great. But the overall recommendations felt a tad stuffy. Watch out when buying rail tickets via links from Rick Steves' website. I overpaid for a couple of tickets per the ticket agent in Oslo.

Rick Steve's never disappoints. Even though this version was a few years old, it still worked perfectly. I believe a newer version has been released, but my trip was before then. The book is a little heavy for carrying around in my purse all day, but in the book he says to cut the book and that is exactly what I did. I traveled to Denmark, Sweden, and Norway (and Germany, but that was a different book), so each leg of the trip I just had the necessary country's information with me. What I love the most about his books are his "walks". Exploring without a tour is one of my favorite things to do, and I am able to do this and still know what I am looking at because he explains it all in the book. I have purchased other brands- Lonely Planet, Frommer's etc, but Rick Steve's is always THE best. He also has information about museums and it is so thorough that you could skip actually entering the museum, haha!When in Europe you will definitely see other people with his books. In Stockholm a group saw what I was carrying and told me they couldn't live without him either.

This book was a good starting point for planning a trip to Norway. Key areas, such as Oslo, Bergen, and the Norway-in-a-Nutshell route are covered with Rick Steves' trademarked sensibility. Unfortunately, it's also incomplete: there's no mention of Geirangerfjord, Alesund, Trondheim, or indeed anything further north than Lom.Perhaps that's unfair of me: the primary value of the Rick Steves' series seems to be that it tells you what's worth seeing and what you can skip (whereas most competing travel books are simply a catalog of attractions). There's an argument to be made that these areas of Norway are redundant and hard to get to. However, I'm going to mark it down to trying to cover 5 countries in a single book (which seems to be a common absurdity in how the travel industry groups Scandinavia together).(Note that the Norway portions of this book seem to have been republished (1) as a standalone guide ("Rick Steves' Snapshot Norway") and (2) on the Rick Steves website.)Bottom line: this book can help if you're going to Norway, Denmark, or Sweden, but you'll need to generously supplement your planning with other resources (unless you're hitting up all 3 destinations). For Finland and Estonia (which receive relatively brief treatment), look elsewhere.

used this for a trip this summer to Norway and Iceland. Does not include info on Iceland. Limited info on Norway except for Bergen and Oslo. But was pretty helpful for our 2 days in Oslo and learned how to book a sleeper car on the Oslo to Bergen route, which by the way is much cheaper than booking a hotel room for the night in Oslo. Would have liked to see more about outdoor adventures in Norway like hiking and kayaking and more on Northern Norway. I love the Rick Steves format, maps and info. Pearls like when the ferries quit running or which areas of town you don't want to go to after dark or how to save money are always appreciated!
