.Lonely Planet Estonia, Latvia & Lithuania
City Travel Guides > Books > Estonia
by: Nicola Williams

June 01, 2006
I generally love Lonely Planet books, so was a bit disappointed with this one. It's good as a quick reference guide, but nothing much more. It doesn't have very much background or history about some of the area's most important places. If you're going to buy only one book before traveling to the Baltics, choose the Rough Guide instead - we ended up using it almost exclusively towards then end of our trip. Also, the hotels/accommodations selection in this edition is very poor.

.Tallinn, 2nd: The Bradt City Guide (Bradt Mini Guide)
City Travel Guides > Books > Estonia
by: Neil Taylor

March 01, 2007
The book is useful and full of good information, however it was not completely necessary since it is a pretty small city and I was able to get free maps there with good info too. It was good to read a little bit before I went though so I knew something about the city but I could have gotten all of that information on the internet anyway. It arrived damaged also so resale value is next to nothing.

.Estonia - Culture Smart!: a quick guide to customs and etiquette (Culture Smart!)
City Travel Guides > Books > Estonia
by: Clare Thomson

October 23, 2007
This book presents a very current, accurate and insightful overview of Estonian culture. Each topic is presented clearly and concisely but in appropriate depth: land and people, values and attitudes, festivals and celebrations, making friends, daily life, time out, traveling, business briefing, communicating. The book is an excellent companion to travel guides like the Lonely Planet or Bradt series (which I also recommend). It is a must-read for anyone with more than a passing interest in this small but fascinating nation, and will be of great benefit to travelers and businesspeople planning to spend any appreciable time (read: more than a day or two) in Estonia.

.Estonia, 5th: The Bradt Travel Guide
City Travel Guides > Books > Estonia
by: Neil Taylor

September 01, 2007
On a cruise next year, we will be able to spend 9 hours in Tallinn, Estonia. Since we have never been there before, I found this book to be very helpful with a map of the city and interesting places to visit. It was also interesting to read the history about a country so far away. I feel prepared for our trip.

.Flying Visits Iceland Finland & the Baltic (Flying Visits - Cadogan)
City Travel Guides > Books > Estonia
by: Joan Gannij

October 01, 2005
The combination of countries was almost ideal for the purpose of the trip I was about to embark upon. It included Iceland and Lithuania. I grew up in Lithuania, and often visit Iceland, but the first had been changing rapidly, so it is good to keep checking the facts, and there's always something new one can find in a travel guide, even about a country one knows well. It is also a good way to assess the quality of information in the book, checking against the familiar. In that respect, this guide did not inspire trust: quite many misspellings in the Lithuanian part, a wrong URL here, a wrong word there (Zemuoges for "strawberry" - should have been "braskes" as "Zemuoges" are for wild strawberries). It lists the individuals who helped out with fact ... Read More:

.The Rough Guide to The Baltic States (Rough Guide Travel Guides)
City Travel Guides > Books > Estonia
by: Jonathan Bousfield

May 17, 2004
I had used the first edition to help plan our 3 plus week trip to the Baltic states during May, 2008. But since it was published several years ago, I decided to buy the the 2nd edition (early 2008) which came out a few weeks prior to our leaving for our trip. How frustrating and what a waste of money. Much of the information had not been updated, many places had been closed for over 2 years. There are mention of new things coming in 2006!!! So what happened??? - needed serious editing by folks that "had boots on the ground" - not just using the internet for some updates. Thankfully, I had the Bradt guide and, best of all, were the up to date "In Your Pocket" guides which you can download free or buy light small magazine style when you arrive (check ... Read More:
