Hello hello! And a very Happy New Year, depending on where you are in the world and its timelines when you read this! 2024 is a big one for us, as we celebrate 50 years of Bradt Guides and, first of all, we want to say a big thank you for your support. Whether you're brand new here or have been involved from the start, we couldn't have done it without you. At Bradt, we pride ourselves on our pioneering spirit, one of a kind expression and position as the original sustainable travel guides. We love that we've been able to bring you the very first guides to post-conflict areas like Rwanda, Sierra Leone, Bosnia and Kosovo, as well as post-apartheid South Africa. And we're looking forward to bringing you the first guide to Greenland later this year, as well as a book on the D-Day landings on the 80th anniversary of those world-changing events. But enough about us. Make sure you scroll down to the end of this email to find details about how you can get free tickets to upcoming events and enter our travel competition. 2024 is going to be a busy year and we can't wait to get started. Happy New Year! Cheers, Abi Celebrating Our 50th Anniversary ​During an 18-month trip through South America in 1974, two adventurous young backpackers – Hilary Bradt and her then husband, George – decided to write about the hiking trails they had discovered through the Andes. Fast forward 50 years and Bradt Guides is the world’s largest independently-owned guidebook publisher, with over 200 titles in print. Known for being more comprehensive than any other series, our guides avoid templates and tick-lists - instead they offer a one-of-a-kind expression of an expert author’s interests, knowledge and enthusiasm for telling it like it really is. A lot has changed over the past 50 years, but our ethos remains unchanged: Hilary is still involved, and we still get there first. Join us as we head into 2024 ready to celebrate 50 years of Bradt, world travel and all of the wonderful things that come with it.
