Bøker

Rikt illustrerte bøker med mye bakgrunnstoff. Insight Guides går nøye til verks både når det gjelder historie, kultur og bakgrunn, før de tar for seg de forskjellige delene av området tittelen dekker, en etter en. Serien er kjent for sine fantastiske fotografier og er derfor svært populære ”før-reisen-bøker” - til planlegging og dagdrømming. Bøkene er dessuten egnet for den som ikke behøver bekymre seg stort over bosted og transport under reisen, men kan konsentrere seg om å lese bakgrunnstoff. Utfyllende sammen med for eksempel Lonely Planet. Populære gaver!
