Backpacking in Luxury

Backpacking in Luxury

Luxury Backpackers, the independent travel experts, recently launched Honeymoons in Style, a travel guide-cum-coffee table book based on the ethos of adding luxury to the backpacking experience. Designed for independent, free-spirited honeymooners, the book is divided into themes: cultural, gastronomic, active, or spa-orientated, with plenty of scope and freedom to explore diverse, contrasting locations around the world - France, Italy, Morocco, Indonesia, Japan, Australia, the South Pacific and Brazil.

The book’s authors, Jill and Carlo Nash came up with the idea while researching their ideal honeymoon. “We found the options for newlyweds pretty limiting. We certainly couldn't find any independently written guidebooks exploring more adventurous options in unusual places. We wanted to offer impartial travel advice to any newlyweds wanting to travel independently, encompassing a mixture of both romantic moments with themed adventures from gastronomy to hiking,” says Carlo. For more information, visit www.luxurybackpackers.com

We have five copies of Honeymoons in Style to give away, worth £16 each.

For your chance to win, tick the box marked ‘Honeymoons in Style’ on the giveaway form. Closing date: 23 January 2009.
