Moon Europe Travel Guide

"Moon handbooks are always a pleasure to read. The writing is crisp, the research impressive, and the recommendations practical and down to earth."
Chicago Tribune
“The books are more easily readable than other guides. The main attractions are also marked with a special icon and sidebars and boxes highlight special information, making the Moon handbooks one of the most user-friendly guides in terms of visual appeal and organization…the quality is uniformly excellent."
Transitions Abroad
"Far from narrow minded, each Moon travel guide gives itinerary options for a variety of travelers’ budgets—from frugal to lavish. They make books catering to those who love the outdoors, those who have limited time, those staying exclusively in cities and those who’ve fully committed to living abroad. In all, they have hundreds of titles, ranging Bermuda to Budapest, that’ll teach you to embrace a new culture."
Gear Patrol, “The Best Travel Guidebooks for Every Journey”
"Moon handbooks have become known as well-written and exceptionally informative guides."
The New York Times
"Moon guides are perfect for the relaxed road tripper or outdoor explorer."
No Small Plan
"Moon handbooks are known for cannily combining logistical information with cultural background of a country or state."
Los Angeles Times

About the Author

Originally from New York City, Jenna Gottlieb fell in love with Iceland in 2006 on a spur-of-the-moment getaway. During that trip, there were many firsts: her first time riding a horse, walking behind a waterfall, and tasting the local delicacy “rotten shark.” She survived and continued to return, permanently relocating to Iceland in 2012.

While researching and writing this book, Jenna discovered new favorites and revisited old haunts. Her favorite experiences in Iceland include puffin watching, hiking in the north, and spending as much time in the West Fjords as possible.

A freelance writer specializing in travel, business, and lifestyle, Jenna has contributed to the Associated Press, Euronews, CNN Travel, The Independent, and The New European, among others. You can see some of her published work at jennakgottlieb.com.
