Travel Guide Printing

Printed Travel Guides

Compact and lightweight, travel guide leaflets are an ideal companion for tourists, offering them quick and easy access to essential information without relying on a mobile device or internet connection. These leaflets can feature everything from popular landmarks and must-see spots to hidden gems that give visitors a deeper, more immersive experience of the destination. For those looking to include a map, our cross-fold or half-fold options are perfect for showcasing detailed layouts of an area. With larger sizes like A2, you can present an entire city’s attractions alongside a map, making it easy for tourists to navigate and explore.

Travel guide leaflets are designed to be placed in high-traffic locations such as hotel lobbies, airports, tourist information centres, and popular attractions. This strategic placement ensures that a large number of visitors see your leaflet, maximising exposure to the attractions, services, and businesses featured within. To keep your leaflets organised and accessible, consider ordering from our range of sturdy cardboard leaflet display stands, ideal for making a professional impression in busy tourist areas.

A well-designed travel leaflet not only informs but also engages visitors, helping to enrich their experience and encourage them to explore more. It’s an affordable, effective marketing tool that gives tourists a tangible keepsake and a reliable reference throughout their stay.

All folded leaflets printed on 130gsm and 170gsm sized A4 to A6, or A7 on paper less than 250gsm, are tax-exempt.

Technical Specifications for Folded Leaflets

How To Design Unlaminated Folded Leaflets

• Artwork templates are available for download to assist with setting up your files. These include the panel widths required, too.

• Before submitting folded leaflet artwork, we recommend you print a mock up to check the artwork is positioned correctly.

• When creating any leaflet, please supply your artwork as a 2 page, double sided PDF. For example, on an A4 folded to A5, page 1 should display pages 4 & 1 of the leaflet and page 2 should display pages 2 & 3, as shown in this illustration. 

• When creating artwork with a landscape fold, please submit the front and back pages on the same page, with the front page orientation correct and the back page rotated 180°. The inside pages should be on page 2 and rotated 180° so that the orientation is correct on the final print. You can check the orientation is correct by printing a mock up before submitting your artwork.

• Please note for artwork that includes coloured backgrounds, or coloured elements which overlap the fold lines, we would recommend ordering our laminated leaflets to protect the ink and paper from cracking and provide a smooth fold.
