Robert Doyle READ TIME: 2 MIN.
Cambridge, MA - Let's Go Travel Guides have always strived to meet the needs of a diverse readership: from cash strapped college students to the more mature-but budget-conscious-thirty-something. This June, which is also Gay Pride Month, Let's Go is proud to announce the release of in-depth travel content specifically devoted to GLBT travelers. This content is now available online at letsgo.com.
With policies and attitudes toward GLBT-identified individuals varying so much across the world, Let's Go hopes these new pages on letsgo.com will become a strong resource for GLBT travelers
"Our GLBT coverage addresses issues of safety and acceptance, provides information on local events and resources, and includes GLBT-friendly accommodation, restaurant, nightlife, and cultural listings," said Joseph Molimock, Publishing Director for Let's Go. "The content is, of course, still authentically Let's Go-funny, opinionated, and with an emphasis on budget-friendliness."
Visitors to the site can look forward to quality travel information, with a focus on GLBT life. From where to find a comfortable hostel near the parade route during Amsterdam's pride festival to the hottest club in Prague for dance and drag, Let's Go offers all the information and resources needed to help make planning a short trip, or a gay-friendly semester abroad, a breeze. .
In addition to the information on each country's page on the Let's Go website, readers can also look forward to reading travel blogs with information about current events that are relevant to GLBT travel. For more information, check out our recent spotlight on Italy
Let's Go publishes the world's favorite student travel guides written entirely by college undergraduates. With pen and notebook in hand, and a few changes of underwear stuffed in their backpacks, Let's Go student researchers go across continents, through time zones, and above expectations to seek out the best travel experiences.
Let's Go has been on the road for 50 years and counting; and on a mission to provide readers with sharp, fresh coverage and socially responsible opportunities to go beyond tourism. Our website, http://www.letsgo.com
