Viseu, Portugal -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/18/2014 -- With the pronouncement that “Travel With Mario – Travel as Local. Enjoy your life better,” the new low-cost travel site TravelWithMario.com was launched. The website offers digital travel guides of various major European cities and these guides are available in three main versions: basic, basic plus and premium. Site owner Mario Mouraz also announced that visitors to his new site will be able to download one free travel guide through March 21, 2014.
TravelWithMario.com features comprehensive travel guides for the most popular destinations throughout Europe, including Barcelona, London, and Lisbon, with Rome, Paris and Berlin coming soon. Mouraz created the site in February 2014 and is eager to showcase his travel knowledge to a worldwide audience. His special promotion offering a free download until March 21 is designed to generate buzz about the site and let travelers get a feel for the nature of his guides so they will come back often no matter where they plan to visit. Accessing the free guide is quite easy. Visitors to the site need only choose the guide they want to download and then select the “free” version and enter “0€” in their shopping cart.
The guides arrive in PDF format and have been designed to work on smart phones or tablets so users can access and use them from any location. Mouraz is particularly excited about that feature since travelers will be able to use his guides even as they are walking the streets of the city they have just arrived in without having to print the guide and worry about keeping track of it.
Each guide includes maps, links to local tours and shows and a complete day-to-day travel plan for those who want to experience as much as they can in a short period of time. Mouraz hopes that his guides will remove the need to pay for a local tour guide and that they will allow visitors to get the full experience of the city they are visiting. Each guide has been designed to showcase the best of the local culture by focusing on places and things that typical tourists overlook. The guides immerse users in native food options, local music and culture and allow visitors to mingle with local people.
Mouraz is a young entrepreneur who has lived on four continents and travelled to more than 35 countries. He draws upon that life experience to craft these guides that will alter the way travelers view these major European cities. According to Mouraz, “I want people to enjoy more their travels. The mainstream travel guide books are boring and impersonal. With the city travel e-guides of Travel With Mario, anyone can travel to a European city and feel that they have someone on their side telling them what to visit, where to eat, how to save or which ones are the best value for money hotels. Essentially, it allows the traveler to live the destination from a local perspective which becomes much enjoyable.”
In just one month of availability, users are already giving the guides positive reviews. One traveler recently said, “The guide led me to astonishing places I would have never guessed and provided useful tips and insights that allowed a full immersion into the local life. I enjoyed every step of my stay. Another simply stated, “This is a great guide”!
