Start with a neighbourhood

Choose a manageable area and give the reader a reason to start there. Explain what is close together, where the route changes character, and which details you observed yourself.

Leave room between the plans

An itinerary is a starting point rather than a promise. Keep time-sensitive details dated, link to official opening and transport information, and include an alternative for a wet afternoon.

Bring the story home

A useful destination guide leaves readers with a sense of the place and a practical next step. Finish with one recommendation about how to plan, rather than an impossible list of everything to see.
