Time Out Copenhagen - Time Out Guides

Product Review

Though it is no longer a secret that Copenhagen is the perfect weekend destination, with its beguiling blend of super-cool shops, fabulous restaurants and world class museums all conveniently compressed within a pretty, pedestrian-friendly heart, the third edition of the Time Out guide will illuminate the corners of the city that other guides rarely reach. In recent years visitors have begun to discover an alternative Copenhagen, away from the royal and historic riches of its 1,000-year-old centre. Previously down at heel parts of the city like Vesterbro and Norrebro have emerged as newly groovy hotspots where cutting edge fashion, food and design flourishes. So, while many are lured to Copenhagen by its rich 20th century design legacy, they are as likely to leave having sampled the best that modern Scandinavia has to offer.

Good travel guide laid out by topic, February 26, 2006

This review is from: Time Out Copenhagen (Time Out Guides) (Paperback)

I really appreciated the layout of this book by topic (i.e. Where to Stay, Sightseeing, Eat-Drink-Shop, Arts & Entertainment, etc.). Although this may make it a better bet for those planning ahead well in advance instead of dropping into Denmark, it is a perfect companion to Denmark (DK Eyewitness Travel Guides), which is laid out mainly by region.

Highly recommended: cover it all in a honest way, August 3, 2006

This review is from: Time Out Copenhagen (Time Out Guides) (Paperback)

Time Out Copenhagen covers it all, and more. Having read this book before actually going to Copenhagen is the best one can do. You will know exactly what to visit, where to eat and stay, where kids can play, and more. It is refreshingly honest and contains lots of information such as fees, schedules, addresses, maps, pictures. You will read if the place is popular and if the authors think it is worth it, if you get what you paid for, etc. Best book I bought on the matter. The book is organized in a way that makes it is hard to put down too. Highly recommended.
