Robin McKelvie - Travel Writer and Photographer
Need Copy?

Whether you are looking for a travel guidebook to an emerging destination, a colourful travelogue or just a short filler I have an enormous amount of material on file and can also write to order. Below is an idea of the main types of writing I do. Just email me for further details.

Destination Articles
Informative features on countries, city breaks or regions. These can take in a mix of history, culture, tourist attractions, eating and drinking options etc to suit each market. I have these on file for multiple destinations and can also write to order.

Personal Experience
Colourful first person travelogues. These can be anything from a tale of white-eyed terror aboard the Trans-Siberian through to grappling with crocs canoeing in Australia. Anything from a personal account of a country through to a humorous 'traveller's tale' piece.

Luxury Travel
Over the last decade I have stayed in over 500 hotels ranging from bush safari lodges in South Africa with their own plunge pools and over-water luxury bungalows in Bora Bora, through to grand old dames like the Cipriani in Venice. Individual hotel reviews are available as are 'round-ups' along the lines of 'Top 10 Boutique Hotels', 'Rooms with a View' etc.

Railways
I have ridden on many of the world's great trains/journeys including the Trans-Siberian, Silk Route, Royal Scotsman, Orient Express, Indian Pacific, The Ghan, Flying Scotsman, Rovos Rail, the Blue Train, Eastern and Orient, Desert Express and the Tranz-Alpine.

Other Writing
Whatever you are looking for, whether it is directly focused on travel or not, I have a breadth of experience and large store of copy. If you are looking for something specific or want to discuss any ideas further, whether you are a small start-up magazine or the editor of a successful broadsheet, just pop me an email and let me know what you are looking for.
