This new, thoroughly updated fifth edition of Bradt's award-winning
Iceland guide remains the most in-depth guide available to one of
the few countries in the world that has no mosquitoes, no ants, no
Starbucks and no MacDonalds. Featuring honest, practical
information from an author who has repeatedly visited the country
over twenty years and is familiar with its language, history and
culture, Bradt's Iceland has won the Lowell Thomas Award (the
highest travel writing award available in the United States) and
provides more context for individual places than any other
guidebook, plus frank, investigative hotel and restaurant reviews
that hide nothing. This latest edition covers everything you would
expect, from the Northern Lights to snow mobiling, dog sledding,
visiting West Fjords, Iceland's remotest corner, and the Laugavegur
trail, Iceland's most famous 5-day trek. New developments covered
include the merging together of different Nature Reserves and
National Parks under the 'Vatnajökull National Park' banner,
better infrastructure throughout the entire country, new hotels,
restaurants, bars and geothermal spas, and more tour companies
offering a wider variety of activities. For Reykjavik, there has
been a complete update of the city's nightlife, restaurants,
hotels, swimming pools and festivals, while other new features
include fuller coverage of East Iceland, visiting hot springs and
spas, 4X4 adventures in the Icelandic Highlands, plus more details
of how and where to experience Iceland's amazing wildlife. Bradt's
Iceland also offers the most detailed maps of any guidebook. Based
on 20 years of personal and business travel, exploration and
adventure all around the country, the guide is exhaustive,
well-researched and comprehensive, featuring a year-round approach
to travelling in Iceland in line with the development of the local
tourist industry to offer attractions beyond the normal summer
season. As a contributor to National Geographic, and a frequent
host for tours to Iceland, Andrew Evans explores some of the
remotest corners of the country regularly. He continues to lecture
about the country to high-end tour groups, as well as the National
Geographic Society and Smithsonian Institution. His guide is
exhaustive, allowing travellers to make informed decisions, to go
anywhere and explore anything.
