COMPETITION
Tell us about an unforgettable journey by rail for the chance to win your selection of Bradt books worth up to £100
The new Venice SimplonOrient-Express service to the Alps (page 7) hits the heights in terms of luxury as well as landscape. If you have travelled in style by rail or been wowed by the views, share your story. Perhaps it was on the Ghan in Australia, the Rocky Mountaineer in Canada, Rovos Rail in South Africa or a lesser-known – and lower-budget – route.
The best entry wins a selection of Bradt travel books worth up to £100.
ABOUT THE PROVIDER Bradt Guides, celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, is one of Britain’s longest-standing travel publishers – and is still proudly independent.
Their guidebooks offer comprehensive and inspirational information for people seeking to get properly under the skin of the places they are visiting. This has made them favourites with travellers including Simon Reeve, Kate Humble, and Michael Palin – who describes them as “authoritative and thoroughly tempting”.
Since Hilary Bradt wrote the first guide to the Inca Trail in 1974, the company has earned a reputation for getting there first. Today, there are Bradt guides to more than 150 destinations, from Abruzzo to Zimbabwe.
Bradt also has the UK covered, with a range of activity guides (including Dog-Friendly Weekends, Camping Road Trips UK and Paddling Britain), alongside its acclaimed “Slow Travel” guides. Alternatively, armchair travellers can choose from a series of absorbing and award-winning Bradt travel literature.
