About Travel Novice

I travel. A lot. So while I'm a seasoned traveler, each time I visit a new place, I'm a "novice" to that locale.

Travel Novice is designed to help you by connecting you with fellow travelers who have been there. We don't try to be everything to everyone, we simply share our own practical experience.

You can take our real itineraries and use them as you see fit. They are what we used. Will they work for everyone? No, but you'll likely learn a lot of great tips that you might not pick up from the guidebooks and big travel sites. That's what Travel Novice is all about... real travelers sharing their real experiences.
