Trailblazer guides concentrate
on providing information either to a region or country
where no other guide is available. They are strong
on practical information yet don't neglect cultural
background. They give all the best accommodation and
eating options available and also advise on what's
worth seeing and what's better to avoid. They tell
you how to get there, what to pack and what to read
before you go. Comprehensive background information
on history, climate, food, and the people is combined
with detailed sections on the environment and good
maps. Entertaining as well as informative, the guides
inspire readers not simply to travel but to interact
with local people as well.
The Trailblazer mission statement
is unique among guidebook publishers.
From the publisher:
"We believe in the joy of travel and we aim
to provide readers with the inspiration to make their
travelling experience enriching not only for themselves
but also for the people whose community or country
they are visiting.
We think travel should be more than lying on a
beach or ticking off sights in a travel brochure;
we also believe it should be more than following
a herd of jaded backpackers from one backpacker dive
to the next.
In our guides we try to give readers information
that will help them interact positively with local
people and the local environment."
Updates to the guides are available online.
