Open Book

​

Few other guidebook publishing companies can afford the time, effort and dedication that we lavish upon all our titles. This is why we firmly believe that each of our guidebooks is the very best that you can find about any particular destination.

It takes a minimum of three years to write a City Trail guidebook. Not only that, but writing one of sufficient quality requires that the authors be based in the country, not just passing through. Each of our authors spends years living and breathing the country before they even start to put pen to paper.

Our guidebooks also seek to take the path less trodden. As well as covering the obvious tourist hotspots, we make a special effort to seek out those parts of a country that are less talked about in other guidebooks.

Because we are an independent and lightweight publishing company, we can write in the way that we want. Our guidebooks speak with their own voices - we are not stifled by the need to conform to some corporate stricture. This means that each guidebook can be written in the way that is best suited to a particular destination.
