The Attaché Guide to Travel is a guide book for today’s traveller.

Forget the endless lists of tourist traps and clichéd restaurants. The Attaché Guide to Travel is packed with tips on transport, food, money, language, and etiquette, so you can unlock YOUR unique experience in some of the world’s greatest cities.

Beautifully designed with world-class photography, the Attaché book is essential hand-luggage material for every traveller.

Most travel books all seem to be 500-page lists of tourist attractions and over-priced eateries. Nobody has time for that anymore. There’s very little that caters to today's traveller; the traveller who wants to dive beneath the veneer of a city and discover its spirit through the people that live there, and their food and drink, all while respecting local customs.
