The Savvy Traveller
began in 1985 in Chicago as a real live one-stop
shop for travellers. It was filled with guidebooks
and all manner of other reading matter about places around
the world, along with maps, globes and travel gear for
actual travellers, armchair travellers...and dreamers.
The aim of the store was to provide everything a traveller
needs to plan and take a trip, except tickets. The Savvy Traveller
closed its bricks and mortar store in 2007.

"The
world is a book, and those who do not travel read only
a page."
~St. Augustine |

"Travel
is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness,
and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts.
Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things
cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner
of the earth all one's lifetime."
~Mark Twain |

"If you reject the food, ignore the customs,
fear the religion and avoid the people, you might better
stay home."
