New to Footprint - then let us introduce ourselves

Footprint guides are written for independent travellers looking to get off the beaten track and escape the tourist crowds. We are passionate about helping travellers gain a refreshingly different view of the world and making their experience as positive as possible.

From the first edition of our first book in 1924 to the books that we publish today, one thing has remained consistent: every book is expertly written by authors with first-hand knowledge of the areas they write about, enabling us to create titles which are rich in cultural and historical content and which offer a level of detail simply not offered by other guidebooks.



Our commitment to you? It’s simple:-

  • Unparalled coverage - The breadth and depth of coverage provided in our guides ensures they are amongst the most comprehensive and detailed guidebooks on the market.
  • Author expertise - books written by a small team of experts with an intimate knowledge of the region they cover, results in books which are accurate, insightful, practical, and rich with places and attractions simply not covered by other guides.
  • Respectful Travel - our depth of cultural and historical context provides travellers with a true understanding of the places and people they are visiting, whilst encouraging sensitivity towards local communities.
    Providing knowledge, options and choice - we recognise that everyone wants something different, so we provide the most comprehensive level of detail to enable you to make informed decisions and choices.
