I received the book a few weeks ago and I love it. I read it every day, as we want to travel around for 4 weeks in May because I want to know as much as possible about the country. The book – guide actually – starts with the routes and the sections on preparation, info etc are at the back of the book and I would find it more logical if that was at the front of the book. Once I figured out how it works with the routes, I found that those sections are also very well put together. The book is of very high quality and the photos are beautiful. There is a lot of information in it about the history of the country, which makes it even more interesting. My compliments on this wonderful guidebook!

Un guide riche en renseignements, autant sur les profils des pistes que sur la culture des differentes régions traversées. Et cerise sur le gâteau il est d ecxellente facture, presque dommage à emporter avec soi durant le trip. Si je devais faire une remarque ce serait sur la carte, un peu trop petite.Un modèle sur sur les cartes de “International Photographer” avec laquelle j ai arpenté l Islande serait génial. Sinon à peine ouvert qu’on est déjà en voyage. Bravo à vous!
