Hidden Puglia and Magical Morocco

puglia“Puglia, the heel of Italy’s boot, is a visual and culinary feast, a place to sooth your soul while discovering this new and delightful area of Italy. The Adriatic, with colors from lapis to turquoise, ribbons along its eastern coast, groves of ancient gray-green olive trees stretch to the horizon, and row upon tailored row of grape vines are draped across all of the region’s gently rolling hills…”

This is the beginning of our spanking new ‘Hidden Puglia’ itinerary for Unique Backroad Journeys. We have previously completed another itinerary, ‘Magical Morocco’. You can read the Puglia guide here, and the Morocco guide here.

Editor Interview with Cities Talking

Cities TalkingWorld Words editor Joseph Reaney was recently interviewed by one of our clients, Cities Talking, outlining all the skills, tips and tricks required to compose great audio travel guides that entertain and inform the listener. Here was one of the questions…

Q. HOW DO YOU TACKLE A BRIEF TO WRITE A CITIES TALKING TOUR?

A. Cities Talking is a wonderful client. They provide a clear brief about the tour they wish to be written and have in-house researchers who send over a long document outlining each and every attraction en route. We’ll then scour these notes, pick out the interesting information and use this to create an entertaining and informative audio script. We also supplement this research with some of our own. In particular, we try to find interesting characters and dig into their personalities.

You can read the interview in full of the Cities Talking website. You will find some of the audio city guides we have written for this client, including on the beautiful European cities Amsterdam, Budapest and Prague, in our portfolio.
