About Us
We make digital travel guides for people who want an amazing trip without turning travel planning into a second job. Clear, curated, and built to use on the go.
Our promise: less noise, more confidence. We do the digging, filtering, and organizing so you can focus on the fun part: actually traveling.
Why travelers choose us
Curated on purpose
The internet is loud. Guidebooks can be overwhelming. We streamline everything into a clear plan that’s easy to scan, easy to trust, and easy to use.
Digital-first (not “a PDF book”)
Our guides are built for real travel. Clickable links, quick navigation, and layouts designed for screens so you can pull it up in a taxi, on a train, or mid-walk.
Reviewed regularly
Travel info changes fast. Because our guides are digital, we can review and refresh content so you’re not relying on advice that was true in 2019.
What you get
- Works across devices: use it on your phone, tablet, laptop, and more.
- Reader-friendly formats: PDF for quick reference + printing, and eBook formats for apps like Apple Books and Kindle.
- Interactive by design: links that take you straight to key info, routes, and booking resources when you need them.
- Print only what you want: bring a few pages, not a whole brick of paper.
How we build guides you can trust
1) Research, then filter hard
We gather the best options, cross-check sources, and remove anything that doesn’t meaningfully help a traveler.
2) Organize it like a real trip
We structure content the way decisions happen: what matters first, what to do next, and what’s worth skipping.
3) Make it usable on the go
Clear headings, fast scanning, and link-out resources so you’re not re-Googling everything while you travel.
4) Keep improving
We refine accuracy, clarity, and usefulness so the guide gets better over time, not older and dustier.
Independent by design
We’re not paid by tourism boards, hotels, or local businesses to recommend anything. Our job is to help you travel smarter with clear, practical guidance.
Who we are
Awesome Travel Guides is built by the Francia family and a small team of researchers and creators. We’re based in North Carolina, USA.
We started this because we were tired of bloated guidebooks, outdated advice, and planning trips across a million browser tabs. We wanted something cleaner and easier to use. So we built it.
