Hola from Miami! I'm here exploring the sustainable side of travel, from quiet escapes in the Everglades with custodians of the land to heading underground to landfill compaction sites in the heat. It's fascinating to learn about the different projects and techniques that just one city can use to try to make life and tourism better for all.
And of course, that ethos is baked into the kind of travel we talk about at Bradt.
And combat overtourism by checking out our travel guides to more unusual destinations. Over 70% of our city, region and country guides still have no direct competition from other publishers, after all.
Our guides are known for being more comprehensive than any other series. We avoid templates and tick-lists. Each guide is a one-of-a-kind expression of an expert author’s interests, knowledge and enthusiasm for telling it like it really is.
We can only do what we do because of the support of our readers – that's you! People who value less-obvious experiences, less-visited places and a more thoughtful approach to travel. Those who, like us, take travel seriously.
I look forward to sharing the developments here in Miami with you.
