About Lonely Planet:
Celebrating its 40th anniversary, Lonely Planet began in 1973 after co-founders Tony and Maureen Wheeler went on an epic, overland honeymoon trip and cobbled together at their kitchen table a guide of their journey for other travelers. Within a week, they sold 1500 copies and Lonely Planet was born.
Lonely Planet is now the world’s leading travel content provider, with guidebooks to almost every destination on the planet, an award-winning website, over 150 mobile apps, ebooks for all its titles, and, of course, a dedicated travel community. To learn more, visit www.LonelyPlanet.com.
