Join the Guild
Write your city
A Guild Travel Reporter writes the guide for a city they know well — an honest, original guide built on the Guild template: what to see, where to stay, when to go, and the real story of the place. You work with the Guild's editors, your guide is reviewed and approved before it joins the shelf, and it carries your name. Reporters are full members of the Destinations Guild Dispatch.
What we look for: real knowledge of your city, a clear honest voice, and a willingness to follow the Guild Guide Standard. No professional writing experience required — just a place you know and care about.
