Fodor’s is the world’s largest publisher of English language travel and tourism information, and the first relatively professional producer of travel guidebooks. Fodor’s Travel and Fodors.com are divisions of Random House, Inc.
Founder, Hungarian Eugene Fodor was a keen traveler, but felt that the guidebooks of his time were boring, uninspired collections of quickly outdated facts and figures. He decided to address these shortcomings and wrote a guide to Europe, On the Continent—The Entertaining Travel Annual, which was published in 1936.
Going beyond the usual lists of hotels and attractions, the book was updated yearly and gave practical guidance, such as tipping advice, alongside information about the local people and culture. For example, in the introduction, Fodor wrote “Rome contains not only magnificent monuments, […]

The first time I went to visit San Diego I said, “I’m going to move here someday“. I really loved it. The hot humid air…the tropical landscape…the surf. San Diego is California’s second largest city, with 70 miles of beach packed with adventure. It’s one of those cities where you can walk to cool shops and destination spots from your hotel (save on those horrendous gas prices). The airport is even located downtown! So, you really don’t need to rent a car, as the cab from the airport is only about 12 bucks. Then, after you arrive in your hotel you will find an abundance of public transportation, including foot-powered bicycle “pedi-cabs” to whisk you around town. San Diego is what I would call a “health conscious” community, and you will find much in the way of sports and outdoor recreation (besides the obvious, […]

When life gets taxing with its rises and falls, then the only thing to take your mind off all the trouble is a nice relaxed holiday. Many people forego this pleasure trip, as the fear of the expenses weighs heavy on the pocket as well as the thoughts.

You are enticed into this paradisiacal world not only because it has much to offer for anyone and everyone, but also because it makes you forget yourself and opens its arms for you the moment you set foot there. Do not wait for any bells to ring, because cheap airfares are just a click away. Gone are the days when booking an air ticket was a tedious job which meant standing in queues, and waiting long hours to get a desirable […]
