SO YOU WANT TO

WRITE FOR NATIONAL

GEOGRAPHIC TRAVELLER?

Our annual Travel Writing Competition is back, and we’re giving

you the chance to see your name in the pages of the magazine and

win an unforgettable adventure in Vietnam

THE PRIZE

Courtesy of TUI Tours, the winner

will set off on a 14-day trip of a

lifetime to Vietnam, taking in the

highlights of the country from north

to south. This adventure combines

the very best Vietnam has to offer,

from its dramatic landscape to its

vibrant, dynamic cities. You’ll explore

peaceful paddies, emerald-green

mountains, limestone islands and

talc-soft beaches, as well as the likes

of Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, which

fizz with energy and serve some

of the world’s most unforgettable

cuisine. tui.co.uk

If you’re the type of traveller who collects stories rather than souvenirs, then we

want to hear from you. As one of the country’s most prestigious travel writing

competitions, this is your chance to put pen to paper and tell us your travel

tales. Not only could win a fantastic trip to Vietnam, but you might even kick-

start your career as a travel writer.

We’re ater no more than 500 words on a standout travel experience. It could

be on anywhere — from the jungles of Costa Rica to the Kent coast — just as

long as it remains clear, focused and inspiring.

Don’t forget to embrace the ethos of National Geographic Traveller: a strong

sense of place; immersive, authentic experiences and compelling storytelling.

Entries close at 23:59 on 31 May 2020. Terms and conditions apply.
