Globetrotting destroys ethnocentricity. It helps
you understand and appreciate different cultures. Travel changes people.
It broadens perspectives and teaches new ways to measure quality of
life. Many travelers toss aside their hometown blinders. Their prized
souvenirs are the strands of different cultures they decide to knit
into their own character. The world is a cultural yarn shop. Back
Door Travelers are weaving the ultimate tapestry. Join in! |

The first Rough Guide, published in 1982, was a student scheme that became a publishing phenomenon. These days the guides include recommendations from shoestring to luxury and cover more than 200 destinations around the globe, including almost every country in the Americas and Europe, more than half of Africa and most of Asia and Australasia. Our ever-growing team of authors and photographers is spread all over the world, particularly in Europe, the USA and Australia. |
