Our team
The Epic Trip Ideas editorial team
Epic Trip Ideas is published by one small editorial team. Regional pen names organise our guides by destination; they are not separate individual contributors. The portraits are representative images for those pen names, rather than photographs of the editors.
Our guides bring together research from published sources, which are linked in each article. A pen-name byline alone does not indicate a firsthand visit.
Read about our editorial approach and how we fund the guides on the About page.
Meet the editors
One pen name per set of destinations, covering everything there, from where to stay to what to eat and what it costs. When one of our trips is under way, its route appears under that pen name.
