About us and our approach to travel writing

Spontaneous travel is fun, but it can go wrong. Package trips are safe, but often dull. Memorable travel starts from knowing the options that are open to you. Then you can focus on what you want to achieve, safely and without stress. You may need local help to turn this into a detailed plan.

The aim of guides in this series is to to let you explore a virtual country, make up your mind about what is attractive and practical, and then to seek advice. Our travel service are available to help you tailor a trip to your specific interest. Here are examples of trips that have been tailored around, for example, orchids. These could just as well have focused on birds, fishing or other specialist interests.
