Customer Reviews

necessary for this city

There is just so much to see in this exciting city that you could probably have a lot of fun without a guide. But it was so great as a young, curious camera-happy tourist to have Lonely Planet's tips on cool bars and restaurants and even the notes on culture. I like the clear maps and tips on metro directions. It's also a very compact size that fits well in your back pocket. Be forewarned that this came out a couple years ago so we discovered some other new buildings not listed in the book.

Just the right size for Copenhagen

This guide provides just the right amount of detail about Copenhagen, and is sized to fit conveniently in my small travel purse. So I could carry it around with me and frequently reference it while I walked around town. Copenhagen is a delightfully condensed city, and this guide is exactly the right size for it. Don't buy the guide for the map, however. It is small and hard to read. Instead go to the "Wonderful Copenhagen Tourist Information Office" across the street and down about a block from Tivoli, and pick up one of their nice, large font maps.

Great pocket guide!

This was my first purchase in the Lonely Planet Encounter Series but I loved it. It was perfect for the person who wants to the information, but doesn't need every detail and cumbersome hotel and restaurant recommendations. It fit my style of traveling with the details of the neighborhoods, museum, attractions, and sights I wanted to see without overburdening me with unnecessary information. It was a perfect reference to keep in your back pocket as you explore Copenhagen on foot or with the public transportation. Definitely recommended for short term stays in Copenhagen.
