Travel guides to plan and travel differently
We are an independent publisher of travel guides, both physical and digital, that stands out for offering recommendations that allow travelers to experience each destination like a local . Founded in 2019, our goal is more than just offering maps; we provide a complete list of food, culture, leisure and shopping recommendations to immerse yourself in the culture and discover the reasons why they are recommended. All of them have been personally tested and verified by Le Periplo.
Inspired by the essence of the "periplo", Le Periplo guides are designed to organize your trip with local, simple, calm and inspiring alternatives . Focused on sustainability, creativity and design, they combine the traditional and local with the new that emerges in each destination. They offer tours, walks, visits to cafes and restaurants with local and traditional cuisine frequented by residents, and local activities for cultural immersion. We are aware that, when traveling, we leave a mark, so our mission is to travel consciously and responsibly, respecting and valuing each destination and its inhabitants .
In short, Le Periplo invites you to connect with the culture of the destination , discover its essence and honestly share what you have experienced. Our guides, available in digital and printed format, are designed to make travelers feel at home while discovering new cities in an organic and authentic way.
Le Periplo guides are sold through its website and at selected points of sale .
Our history
We are Flor de Lis Blázquez and Sandra Llopart, founders of Le Periplo. Our publishing house is a combination of what we both do on a daily basis: creativity, travel, graphic design and photography, as a lifestyle.
Why did we decide to create Le Periplo?
A trip to Manhattan was a turning point for us. Using one of the well-known travel guides, we spent almost two weeks gathering recommendations and points of interest, marking them on a map to create an 8-day itinerary. That organization was exhausting and stressful, especially for those who prefer to plan ahead and have alternatives in case of unexpected turns in the trip.
When creating our brand, we wanted to make planning and organizing a trip different: calmer, more intuitive and exciting. We wanted to offer more than just conventional travel guides; we wanted to create authentic and sensitive experiences that invite you to immerse yourself in the essence of each destination. We saw the need to tell the story of the trip in a different way, to travel differently.
The journey begins from the moment you receive and open the guide, because at that moment a conscious and different journey begins.
