Ecuador
Ordinær pris 249,00 krDon't just see the sights-get to know the people. The people who inhabit the diverse landscapes of this beautiful land are proud, friendly, hospitable, and hardworking, but to understand the culture in any depth, you need to know the complex historical divisions between the highlands and the coast, and the rigid class and racial discrimination that has dominated the country's history. This updated edition of the award-winning Culture Smart! Ecuador takes you beyond the usual descriptions of what to see and digs into the heart of this multi-layered nation to give you an insider's view of the people and their traditions, history, food, and culture, and the practical tools to make the most of your time there.
Have a richer and more meaningful experience abroad through a better understanding of the local culture. Chapters on history, values, attitudes, and traditions will help you to better understand your hosts, while tips on etiquette and communicating will help you to navigate unfamiliar situations and avoid faux pas.

South American Handbook
Ordinær pris 449,00 krSouth America is a land of superlatives. Home to the world’s longest mountain range, tallest waterfall, largest rainforest, driest desert, widest river and highest lake, it astounds with its variety. Now published by Bradt Guides, the award-winning, legendary South American Handbook holds a world record of its own as the longest-running English-language travel guidebook. This brand new, fully updated 95th edition celebrates the centenary of the Handbook, which remains as essential for travellers to South America today as it was in the 1920s.
Embark on extraordinary journeys through the breathtaking landscapes and vibrant cultures of this amazing continent, where every corner tells of ancient civilisations or natural wonders. Wherever you travel, South America will uplift your senses – from the tropical sun rising over a palm-fringed beach to a bracing wind blowing off Andean salt pans, from tango in downtown Buenos Aires to the culinary symphony of modern Peruvian cuisine, and from Easter Island’s mysterious Moai statues to mainland Chile’s majestic glaciers.
Wander through the cobbled streets of historic Cusco, echoes of the Inca Empire resonating in every stone. Feel the rhythm of life in the sultry beats of Rio de Janeiro’s carnival, where samba and colour take centre stage. Or explore the wonders of the Galápagos Islands, where nature unfolds in its purest form, revealing a paradise teeming with unique flora and fauna. Whatever South America inspires you to do, you will find that there is no limit to the passion that it fires within you.
In this era of countless websites which bring images and information from every barrio and pueblito, the South American Handbook advises on how to navigate between each place, big or small, in every country. It is your key to a treasure trove of diverse landscapes, rich tapestry of cultures and hospitable peoples – and a celebration of the spirit of adventure and independence that characterises travel in the world’s greatest continent. Drawing on the expertise of correspondents in the region and travellers’ experiences, this centenary edition of the Handbook provides the thread from Acandi to Ushuaia and everywhere you may wish to stop off in between.
