Locals - Share City Travel Tips
Guide to New York, Paris, Rome, Sydney, Tokyo, Cape Town, Toronto…
Urban Travel covers the world’s greatest & most interesting cities – from parking spaces & public transport to best bars & top restaurants. But local advice still helps.
Well, I suppose I had better introduce myself, hadn’t I? Eagle-eyed readers will notice that Urban Travel at Suite101 has a new feature writer, namely me.
The World’s Greatest and Most Interesting Cities
In coming months, I am aiming to turn Urban Travel into a high quality guide to the world’s greatest and most interesting cities. This doesn’t just mean covering the big attractions, like the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the Roman Forum or Sydney Opera House, though.
Parking Spaces, Public Transport, Best Bars, Top Restaurants
I also want to cover the things that matter to urban travellers – such as where to find parking spaces in big cities such as New York, or how to get the best out of the public transport system in Tokyo. I also want to be able to give tips on finding, say, the best bars in Toronto or the top restaurants in Cape Town. And, of course, everyone needs somewhere to stay, whether it’s hostels in Toronto or five star hotels in Venice.
Urban Travel discussions
However, while I do travel a lot – I’m on 16 countries and counting in 2007 so far - I can’t see all the cities the world has to offer. So, I’m looking for help from Suite101’s readers – preferably those who don’t mind offering a friendly welcome to visitors in their home town. So, if you’ve got any travel tips about local hotspots in the place you live, why not share them, and contribute to the Urban Travel discussions? I’ve set up a few discussion forums for advice-sharing – click below to add your words of wisdom:
