Welcome to Urban Travel Blog - the independent guide to City Breaks and Urban Adventure. I'm Duncan Rhodes, a travel journalist who has written for Conde Nast, CNN, The Guardian and many more, and I set up this blog in 2009 to share my love of exploring cities around the world. I knew I couldn't do it alone, and that's why I've engaged with a knowledgeable team of bloggers to deliver 75+ City Guides with all the info you need for an amazing weekend break in everywhere from Amsterdam to Yerevan. Forget the beach and mountains, real travel happens in the concrete jungles... where culture and creativity collide. Read more about us and our philosophy, or browse our home page (you're on it!) or our list of destinations to get started. And if, like us, you love exploring new cities, then be sure to subscribe for all the latest stories.
