Announcing the Slow Travel 2005/06 Contest!!

Yes, another contest!! Our contest last year was so much fun that we decided to do it again. The businesses that support Slow Travel have once again been very generous in giving us over 70 prizes!!

See our list of prizes!!

Over 20 prizes are a one week stay in a vacation rental (two villas that sleep 10, five villas that sleep six, and many apartments/cottages that sleep two to four).
More accommodation prizes - discounts on vacation rentals, weekend stays, two to three night stays in hotels in Italy and France.
Private and small group tours of Rome, Florence, Venice, Amalfi Coast, Paris, New York.
Cooking classes and painting classes.
Cell phones, paintings, prints, books.
Gift certificates for food, books, maps.
And much more!

How Do I Enter?

To enter, submit your travel notes, trip reports and photo essays. As we did last year, we pick the winners and then the winners are drawn from a hat. The order drawn determines the order the prizes are selected. Read our contest rules.

Slow Travel Gets a Face Lift!

And we needed it - after all, we are five years old! We have a new logo and we changed our colors on the website! It is still kind of beige, but not as beigy as before.
