Is This the Right Book for Me?
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: Norway covers the exact same topics as the Norway chapters of Rick Steves Scandinavia — the same hotels, same restaurants, same sightseeing information, same everything.
