Perfect for the trip.
A present for relatives who are visiting Iceland. Good quality and they seemed pleased.
Great travel guide for first visit to Iceland
Really helped planning for my first trip to Iceland
Basic - not worth buying
I bought this for a trip to Reykjavík. I am very disappointed with it. The information is simplistic. The maps are small and don’t cover the full harbour area. Don’t waste your money.
