Rough Guides are written by expert authors who are passionate about both writing and travel. They have detailed knowledge of the areas they write about--having either traveled extensively or lived there--and their expertise shines through on every page. It's priceless information, delivered with wit and insight, providing the down-to-earth, honest read that is the hallmark of Rough Guides. Author of Pocket Rough Guide Tenerife and La Gomera, Andrea has been a freelance travel writer for over 20 years. Travelling extensively throughout Europe, she lived in the north of Tenerife for 14 years and in Portugal for four years before relocating back to the UK in 2021. Her specialism is Slow Travel, focussing on in-depth knowledge of destinations, their culture, food and people. Andrew Beattie studied geography at Oxford University and has been writing and travelling ever since. He has worked on books in the Rough Guides series on Switzerland, Germany and Syria and has previously written about the Lake Geneva region in his cultural guide to the Alps, published by Signal Books; his other books for Signal are cultural guides to the Scottish Highlands, the River Danube, Cairo and Prague, and he has also written a walking guide to the Swiss region of Ticino for Cicerone Press. Home (when he's not travelling) is in Southeast London. Anthon Jackson is an American, Denmark-based writer and photographer. He has contributed to more than thirty travel guidebooks for Rough Guides, Lonely Planet and other series.

She has lived in the USA and Germany, before coming home to East London. Her adventures have taken her to Southeast Asia, USA and through much of continental Europe. She likes seeking out new dishes she hasn't tried before and is a firm believer that you can tell a lot about a country from its local food market. Joanna Reeves is a Sussex-based travel writer and editor who has updated several UK-based and European Rough Guides, including parts of the Rough Guides to England and Great Britain, Pocket Rough Guide Reykjavík and Rough Guide Minis Bologna and Rīga. She is also the editor of the brand-new Rough Guide to Slow Travel in Europe. Kate Drynan is a regular contributor to Rough Guides. She has lived, worked and studied all over the world, including France, Spain, Belgium, England and Dubai. An Irish national, she now resides in her home country and is always happiest when out exploring new places and expanding her knowledge. Marc has been a full-time travel guide author for over two decades, during which he has contributed to almost 200 guides to destinations as diverse as Siberia, Brazil and the Caribbean for all major travel publishers. Based in the Czech Republic, Marc is a regular visitor to the Balkans where hiking in the remote and largely undiscovered mountains of Northern Albania comes a close second to lounging on the beaches of the Adriatic as his favourite activity. Martin Zatko has written or contributed to almost fifty Insight Guides and Rough Guides since making his debut in 2006, including those to Korea, Japan, China, Vietnam, Myanmar, Malaysia, India, Turkey, Greece, Morocco, Australia, Fiji and Egypt. After training as a drama teacher many moons ago, Phil Lee switched to travel writing. He has been writing Rough Guides for well over twenty years and lives happily in Nottingham, UK, where he was born and raised.
