Synopsis
There has been an explosion of tourism to Iceland in recent years, with people drawn by its unusual -- some might say schizophrenic -- combination of extraordinary natural wonders and frenetic nightlife, from strange lava formations to Bjork's favorite bar. The first comprehensive guide to the northernmost capital city in the world, this book blends together the seemingly unconnected strands of Iceland -- all-action sports, bohemian bars, and modern art. Lightweight and portable, this pocket-sized guide provides an informative and entertaining package of ideas and suggestions covering all the latest developments, from new hotels and clubs to new tours and trips. A quirky, funky guide like the city itself, Footprint Reykjavik offers suggestions on the best day and weekly trips into the wild moonscape of Iceland including the popular Blue Lagoon, a whale-watching center, and the area reputed to be the best place to chase pixies and elves in Iceland. Fully integrated with the text, ten pages of two-color maps help travelers navigate the city streets with ease. Like other titles in Footprint's new series of pocket guides, Footprint Reykjavik contains "Ten of the best" things to do and "At a glance" -- the city in a nutshell plus an ever-useful trip planner.

About the Author
It was whilst at Oxford reading English (specialising in Anglo-Saxon and Viking-age sagas in Old English!) that Laura got really hooked by all things Nordic. Whilst researching this guide she went caving to the centre of the earth at Thingvellir National park, went out drinking with a former Miss Iceland and learnt a language which, roughly, only 350,000 people speak in the world. She would love to say she is descended from the Vikings but unfortunately this is probably not the case...
