I would not waste your money on this guide. I am generally a huge lonely planet fan, but felt that I utterly wasted my money on this guide. It gives only cursory information -- essentially the opening times/entrance fees, and if you're lucky, a descriptive sentence -- about even the most major of the sites in a city, and would not even mention many common sites you would make a point to see in a city. Plus, the city maps were terrible. Basically, it spread itself too thin by trying to cover too much of each scandinavian country and only provided cursory information about everything -- rather than focusing on the major cities and surrounding areas. for example, if you were going to spend that much time traveling all around sweden, then you would have gotten the book on sweden, not a general scandinavia book. I hear the Rough Guide is supposed to be good for scandinavia, and if it's job on copenhagen is any indication, I would recommend trying that instead. Buying this book is only slightly better than having nothing at all.
