10 MInute travel - A must for knowing before you go!

10 Minute Travel is a great concept, it is a travel site similar to many but unique in a very special way. It is not as blasé and superficial as Trip Advisor (although I like Trip Advisor it doesn't supply in depth info) and not as fact heavy as reading a history book about a travel destination but it lies somewhere in the middle. At 10 Minute Travel you not only get exposed to unique travel destinations and attractions in those destinations but you also "stop to smell the roses".

The site offers more than the average amount of information about each element within a trip but not too much. It also beaks down the travel destinations in to small (10 minute) slices of info about each site. If you use 10 Minute Travel to plan your trip you'll arrive at your travel destination knowing more than you would have about each site and in addition to that you'll have a few hidden gems up your sleeve!

How does 10 Minute Travel work
Travelers contribute articles, travel tips and reviews about places they've been to and things they've seen and done. Not about complete cities but the individual interesting sites along the way. These travel tips, articles and reviews will take you 10 minutes to digest, and they're accompanied by traveler's photos. Then as a traveler you get to read through the site and get your dose of 10 minute info about the sites at your next travel destination. Because between you and me who can stand to spend more than 10 minutes reading about a site.

Other features on 10 Minute Travel

• And just when I was about to say, yes but a forum would be good here; I find that 10 Minute Travel also has a forum!

I will definitely be using 10 Minute Travel to plan my next trip in the hope of knowing more before I go and even knowing about some sites others may unintentionally overlook.
