reisgids Lapland (Bradt)

Prima reisgids voor zelfstandige reizigers. Uitgebreider dan een Lonely Planet of Rough Guide. Bevat info omtrent plaatsen en bezienswaardigheden, routesuggesties, leuke tips en diepgaande achtergrondinformatie. Veel aandacht voor de praktische details omtrent vervoer en verblijf. Met enkele stadsplattegrondjes en hier en daar wat summiere overzichtskaartjes. Overigens sober geïllustreerd.

Located within the Arctic Circle, Lapland spans the outermost fringes of Scandinavia and is a booming arena for adventure holidays and activities.

Visitors on both short organised tours and those travelling independently are catered for, making this an all-round essential source book on everything this region offers. The first English-language guidebook to Lapland.; includes thorough history and culture, including the indigenous Sámi.; winter in Lapland: from Santa Claus tours and the Icehotel to husky safaris and snowmobiling.; a full roundup of summer activities such as hiking, killer whale watching and Midnight Sun tours.
