Monocle – a magazine that uniquely focuses on urban life and design – knows the hidden gems of the world's trendiest metropolises. The Monocle team knows where to take an ambassador for breakfast, where to take a business partner for cocktails, or where to find a resourceful concierge late at night. This deep understanding of cities and everything that makes them special is revealed in the new The Monocle Travel Guide Series. All tips and tricks for your favorite metropolis are thus compiled in one guide: from the best running route for early risers to insider addresses for the trendiest shops in town.

They are books for those who wish to dive into the city beyond the clichés – even when time is limited! The guides are full of surprises: they lead to both grand hotels and cozy two-star accommodations, they know the charming local pub as well as the cocktail bar with the renowned bartender who serves you an extravagant drink. Additionally, each book includes a short essay or story about the city – a change of perspective for the curious traveler. Designed by the Monocle design team, these beautiful guides are the ultimate travel companions – slim enough to fit in any pocket and filled with a wealth of experiences that will guide you safely through your city trip and far beyond.
