Rick Steves Iceland Review: Never say never, Rick! - Back in 2014, Rick said on his website that he wouldn't be publishing an Iceland guide, and he recommended Lonely Planet's guide instead, but I guess that the money to be made off Icelandic tourism lured him into changing his mind. I've been a Rick Steves devotee since I was about 7, and I just won't visit any European destination without Rick as my guide. "Rick says..." is usually the first thing I say about every site, restaurant, hotel, etc., and my devotion to his guidebooks once provoked my travel buddy into tossing the Spain guidebook off the top of a castle in Segovia. As usual, Rick served up matter-of-fact info with the appropriate amount of detail and solid recommendations. I will say, though, that this was the first time that I had a Rick Steves guide that didn't give me information on everywhere I might have wanted to go in a country. I suppose it makes sense, since most travelers either stay in/around Reykjavik or do the Ring Road, but the fact that there was no information at all on the Icelandic highlands or on reindeer, for example, was surprising. Maybe in subsequent editions? Also, Rick is just clearly not a huge Iceland fan; he was more dismissive of much more of the country than in any other guidebook I've read, frequently calling restaurants, museums, or entire towns "uninspired" or "skippable." Finally, either I've gotten more adventurous (and am not in Rick's target demographic) or Rick is showing his age: many "short hikes" were quick walks on flat, paved trails, and the writing was downright disdainful when discussing festivals that included drunken revelry and the like. Still, it was a useful guide to the country as a whole, and his Reykjavik city walk was characteristically great. Review: Off to Iceland, land of glaciers and volcanoes... - Iceland is just far enough off the beaten path that it doesn't get as much tourist guide book coverage as it probably deserves. Fortunately for the enterprising traveler, Rick Steves has done his considerable homework. His "Rick Steve's Iceland" is close to being one-stop shopping for planning a visit. The author provides a menu approach to Iceland's attractions. An upfront section (in color!) introduces Iceland as a travel destination. The rest of the book provides options for Reykjavik (Iceland's capital and only real city), for attractions near Reykjavik, and for the famed Ring Road around Iceland (800 miles of access to rest of the country). The narrative lays out options, opinions and possible tradeoffs, along with the proper cautions for Iceland's weather and other natural hazards. This reviewer wishes the maps were a bit more detailed, and more of the photographs were in color. Well recommended as a very good planning resource for a trip to Iceland. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #711,642 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #85 in Iceland Travel Guides #315 in Travel Dining Reference #2,047 in Tourist Destinations & Museums Guides | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (495) | | Dimensions | 4.63 x 0.88 x 8 inches | | Edition | 1st | | ISBN-10 | 1631218131 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1631218132 | | Item Weight | 13.6 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 472 pages | | Publication date | March 27, 2018 | | Publisher | Rick Steves | ## Images ![Rick Steves Iceland - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61tvM43uEGL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Never say never, Rick! *by M***K on August 20, 2018* Back in 2014, Rick said on his website that he wouldn't be publishing an Iceland guide, and he recommended Lonely Planet's guide instead, but I guess that the money to be made off Icelandic tourism lured him into changing his mind.

We have used Rick Steve's guides for Europe for many, many years. Rick writes for the traveler who want to mix with the locals and learn about the daily life of whatever country you may be visiting. His books are not for those who want the whirlwind "If-it's-Tuesday-it-must-be-Belgium" traveler. This will be our first trip to Iceland and this new book is up to his same high standards. It will be our "bible" for this next adventure. Rick is the best travel guide ever...hands down. His books are always up-to-date (provided you buy the latest edition) and perfectly practical. He is a practiced traveler and knows how to help you navigate your way through any new country/city while getting the most out of your experience and without breaking the bank. Highly recommend. (Now I just wish Steve would write about Asia and other continents.) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/62959236-rick-steves-iceland](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/62959236-rick-steves-iceland) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
