Should I get this Snapshot guide in addition to Rick's full-length Scandinavia guidebook?

Nope! Our Snapshot guides are simply excerpted chapters from our full-length guidebooks. Snapshot: Stockholm covers the exact same topics as the Stockholm and Stockholm's Archipelago chapters of Rick Steves Scandinavia — the same hotels, same restaurants, same sightseeing information, same everything. (But the full-length Scandinavia guidebook, now in its 17th edition, is more up to date than this Snapshot guide, which was excerpted from the Scandinavia book's 16th edition. Check our Sweden guidebook updates for the most noteworthy changes.)

Latest updates: When we learn of critical changes to the information in our guidebooks on Sweden, we post them. (Of course, it's still smart to reconfirm critical transportation and sightseeing details locally.) Armed with a Rick Steves guidebook and these late-breaking updates, you're set for a great trip!

Submit feedback: Once you've used this book in Europe, we'd love to hear your feedback — good or bad — about our advice on sights, hotels, restaurants, and travel tips. We're also interested in any tips or discoveries you made while in Europe. Your comments help us improve our guidebooks for future travelers.
