How to Advertise on Perceptive Travel

Why would you want to advertise on Perceptive Travel?

Well, here's the thing. If you want to reach active, engaged travelers who take a lot of trips and then talk about them, you've come to the right place. Perceptive Travel is home to quality travel writing that speaks to real people who can't wait to look around the next corner. So we're not really expecting any Rolex or Prada ads. But if you want to speak to people who book lots of trips, go on adventures, and spend more time in interesting hotels than they do reading magazine articles about the Four Seasons while thumbing their Blackberry, now we're talking.

But don't expect us to take you out to dinner or score you NBA tickets to discuss a proposal. We're so far removed from the corporate travel world that you have to send ad requests to the editor's e-mail box. We don't even have a real office you can call. Hmmmm, does that give us some kind of street cred? Is there a punk aesthetic in travel publishing? Who knows. But here's what it costs to get the word out, from the cheapest to the dearest--and even the dearest is not very dear. All prices are per month. Two-month minimum. ('Cause we're not all that quick.)

All ad rates are per month. What a bargain!
