Connecting people, places and nature for good
Sarah Bennett & Lee Slater
Travel writers, publishers, sustainable tourism activists, cyclists and adventurers.
Travel writing
Connecting people and places through great content. We’ve written for Lonely Planet, Stuff, Tourism New Zealand, Great Rides of New Zealand, Daily Telegraph, the NZ Herald and many more. Our passions include outdoor recreation, food & drink, sustainable travel, history and the environment.
Slow travel
Meaningful, light-footprint travel experiences. We can help you develop slow-travel visitation strategies, and create low-impact itineraries to attract visitors who care about the places they visit, stay longer, and connect with communities and the environment.
Cycling
We live for a great bike ride. Whether it’s a mountain bike park, multi-day epic, commuter route or the local pump track – we ride them and know what works. Let us help you grow trails that everyone will love – locals and visitors alike.
Visitor info
Information panels, websites, brochures & maps. Creating meaningful travel experiences relies on local knowledge, good research, inspiring content and clear communication. We produce high-quality travel information for people who want to go deeper but tread softly.
Publishing
Indexing, editorial & production. We love books and have been writing, editing, indexing and publishing them for more than 20 years. Non-fiction specialists, we’ve worked on projects ranging from history and politics to travel guides and cookery books, publishing under our own imprint and with Bridget Williams Books, Awa Press, Otago University Press and others.
Outdoors
Cycling, tramping, camping, skiing, kayaking. If you’ve got an outdoor experience you want to share in a sustainable way, we can help. We connect visitors, operators and communities – so that everyone gets the most out of the experience.
