We’re travelers. We’re foodies. We’re adventurers. We’re even critics. When we arrive in a destination, it can sometimes take us hours to find what’s actually cool and noteworthy in a city. Those places aren’t always the #1 spots on Yelp - they’re the spots that only the locals or the “cool kids” know about.
THOSE are the kinds of places we love. Nothing gives us more joy than discovering the “best” that a city has to offer - and nothing gives us more anxiety or disappointment than when we land on a tourist scam.
So here we are, going out on a limb and creating our own set of guides. Because we’ve been misled far too many times - and these hidden bars and legendary coffee shops need to be shared.
These guides are not sponsored, they’re just Traveling Newlyweds approved.
Every week we’ll launch a new round of guides. So if your city isn’t featured yet, stay tuned. Chances are it’s coming. (If you’re really eager, shoot us an e-mail. There’s a lot of cities out there!)
On each guide we will share the coffee shops we love, restaurants that we’ll keep going back to, the spots with the best drinks, stay-worthy hotels, things to do (for us it’s mostly to walk off our food), pet-friendly summaries (because we love towing Sally around too), and things to avoid (if needed).
If something is missing from a guide, let us know. We’re NOT claiming these are the ONLY spots to visit in a destination, but that these are worthy.
These guides are simple. They’re authentic.
If you like our style (or just us hehe), then we think you’ll love these guides!
