My colleagues at Rough Guides spend their days researching the planet's very best travel experiences. But, where will they go on their own summer vacation?
"This summer, my family and I will be returning to the stunning landscapes of Lochgoilhead in Argyll, western Scotland.
It'll be our second consecutive summer trip to this remote, loch-side idyll, accessed via the evocatively named 'Rest and Be Thankful Pass'.
With two young children, it's all about ease and access to the outdoors for us. So we're staying in a lodge in a (very classy) holiday park, with lots of activities for the girls (there's also a cozy bar for the grown-ups, lined with whiskies to sample) but where we can walk straight into the hills, picking blackberries as we explore.
When the sun comes out over the nearby Loch Fyne, it's hard to imagine it being better anywhere else. I'm most looking forward to fresh seafood and evening walks by the loch, looking out for red squirrels."
Bogumił Brzeziński, E-commerce Manager, is going to ITALY
"I'm excited to be traveling to Italy this summer, with my wife and her parents, who are joining us from Taiwan.
We'll be landing in Bergamo. After some quick sightseeing there and in Milan, we'll travel to Venice, Florence and Rome. As well as famous sites, I'm looking forward to exploring hidden places, too.
Why Italy? I fell in love with Italy's history, culture and especially with its people and seafood when I went last year. I believe everyone should experience the warmth of the Italian sun and Italian hearts.
This will be my in-laws' first time in Italy - the perfect place to catch up in person after a long time apart."
"I'll be spending a chunk of this summer on Dominica, the awe-inspiring (it really is) 'Nature Island of the Caribbean'.
It's a place my husband and I fell in love with ten years ago and have been returning to ever since. Our next trip plan mainly involves fixing up a house in Dominica's highest village (under the supervision of inquisitive goats), along with writing, and spending time with friends in the Kalinago Territory.
We'll also revisit some of the island's incredible trails. Middleham Falls is top of my list. That and heading down the mountain to enjoy rum cocktails on sparkling black-sand beaches! I'll also spend time with my family in Pembrokeshire — it really is a blessing to be from such a beautiful place, and I'm especially looking forward to spending long days on the beach with my nephews and nieces."
"This summer I'll be off to Denmark with my partner and his family. We'll be staying in a bungalow in Ølsted near the beach.
I've heard there's a sauna too, which is very ordinary for Danes but extraordinary for me!
We plan to do lots of hikes nearby and spend a day or two in Copenhagen, which is about an hour away on the train. I'm really looking forward to some lovely long walks in the countryside and along the coast, but equally I can't wait to go to Copenhagen, explore the city and eat copious amounts of smørrebrød and Danish pastries."
