.Copenhagen (Eyewitness Top 10 Travel Guide)
City Travel Guides > Books > Denmark
by: Antonia Cunningham

October 04, 2007
We are planning a short break to Copenhagen and this book is perfect to take with us.

There are great tips on where to stay (any price range), recommendations of where to eat and things that are 'musts' to see and do.

All of this (including a 'streetsmart' section) and still small enough to fit in your pocket or bag!!

.Cycling Back to Happiness: Adventure on the North Sea Cycle Route
City Travel Guides > Books > Denmark
by: Bernie Friend

April 28, 2008
The author goes through a number of distressing ordeals before setting off on what must have been an epic quest for a rookie cyclist still raw from great grief. After all, this was hardly a slow pedal to the shops!
And it is the adventure which makes this story so interesting - the random characters and obscure places visited enroute.
This is not just a journey of the body, but also of the mind as the writer discovers the true secret of cycle touring, absorbing the countries around you and taking the time out to think and relax.
This two wheeled healing process is punctuated superbly with hilarious encounters with unlikely lodging offerers, wild loose shaggy bulls, rabid bike hungry dogs, drunken Swedish card schools and geriatric ... Read More:

.The Xenophobe's Guide to the Danes: The Xenophobe's Guides Series (Xenophobe's Guides) (Xenophobe's Guides)
City Travel Guides > Books > Denmark
by: Steven Harris

March 01, 1999
Quite honestly, having been living in Denmark for near enough a year, I had put this little book to one side, I'd read a few pages and thought "this can't be right, its judgemental and generalistic".
I picked it up the other day, read a bit, to pass a minute or two, of course I read the lot.
It is worryingly enlightening, with same effect as turning a light on in a room, you get the detail, but must not go and tell the other person in the room that they have spinach on their teeth. Of course a Dane would never have spinach on their teeth, (they must carry a personal grooming kit, even the car mechanics are spotlessly clean).
A must read, but to benefit, read it after experiencing a bit first, then you will get the full effect, that is ... Read More:

.The Rough Guide to Copenhagen (Rough Guide Travel Guides)
City Travel Guides > Books > Denmark
by: Lone Mouritsen, Caroline Osborne

March 01, 2007
During three days at the beginning of May, my girlfriend and I visited Copenhagen. This was the first time that either of us had been to this city. What a place! It was extremely relaxed and the people were very friendly. It is true what they say, in that it is rather expensive. At the time of our travel there was approximately 10 Danish Kroner to the pound. This made it relatively easy to work out prices.

The guide book was invaluable, we used it to travel from the airport to Copenhagen Central station and to travel out of the city on the train to Roskilde, home of the Viking Ship Museum. The maps inside were spot on and finding your way around was easy. Nyhavn is visibly more expensive than surrounding areas. E.g One bar charged 5 Kroner for a ... Read More:

.Denmark (Lonely Planet Country Guide)
City Travel Guides > Books > Denmark
by: Andrew Stone, et al

February 01, 2008
I have this book, and think it is the best of the travel books available on Denmark. However, the coverage of the country is not particularly consistent. I definately would not use this book to help me decide on a region to visit. The region I visited on my last holiday to Denmark does not get a mention in this book, except for the largest town there. You would be much better off visiting the Danish tourist info site. If you are going to Copenhagen, this book would be good, as there is very comprehensive coverage of the capital.

.Helsinki Insight Pocket Guide (Insight Pocket Guides)
City Travel Guides > Books > Denmark
by: Brian Bell

July 29, 2005
This book is ok in itself. The photography of the city is very good. This book also includes a pull out map of Helsinki, Tampere and Turku with road names and information about the cities. There's alot of information in the book itself about hotels, shopping, eating out, getting about etc, but beware, numbers, days and months at the back of the book have been written in Swedish not Finnish, which may confuse anyone not knowing Finnish, that these two languages are completely different.

.Copenhagen (Lonely Planet City Guide)
City Travel Guides > Books > Denmark
by: Sally O'Brien

February 01, 2005
The guide was rather short on maps of the city and practical information was not always easy to find within the guide, never the less it gives a good overview of the city, if you read it cover to cover.

Personally I like a more dip friendly guide to help me find my way around.

Read before you go - then invest in a map to take with you.
