Composer Cole Porter was spot on: whether you’re in Paris during the springtime, the autumn, the winter (when it drizzles) or the summer (when it sizzles!), the world’s most romanticised city – with its tree-shaded boulevards, iconic monuments, lamplit bridges, wicker chair–lined cafe terraces, chic fashion sense and exquisite cuisine – has a way of seducing you every moment of the year.

OUR STORY A beat-up old car, a few dollars in the pocket and a sense of adventure. In 1972 that’s all Tony and Maureen Wheeler needed for the trip of a lifetime – across Europe and Asia overland to Australia. It took several months, and at the end – broke but inspired – they sat at their kitchen table writing and stapling together their first travel guide, Across Asia on the Cheap. Within a week they’d sold 1500 copies and Lonely Planet was born. One hundred million guidebooks later, Lonely Planet is the world’s leading travel guide publisher with content to almost every destination on the planet.
