Who We Are

Travel, Taste & Tour is a nationally distributed print travel and lifestyle magazine published by APA Media LLC, based in Tampa, Florida. Founded in 2016, the publication covers US destinations, food culture, outdoor adventures, and local events. The print magazine is our flagship product; the website at traveltasteandtour.com extends the reach of that editorial work.

How We Select Destinations

Destinations are chosen because they offer genuine travel value — interesting places, authentic local culture, accessible outdoor recreation, or notable food and drink. We focus on destinations that are often overlooked by larger national publications, with particular depth in the American South, Appalachia, the Midwest, and the Mountain West.

We do not guarantee coverage to any destination in exchange for payment. Advertising relationships with a destination or tourism board do not determine whether that destination is covered editorially.

Research and Accuracy

Our writers draw on direct travel experience, local sources, and publicly available information. We strive to publish accurate, useful content and to update information when we become aware that it has changed — particularly for practical details such as hours, prices, and contact information.

Travel information changes. Readers should verify current hours, admission prices, and availability directly with venues before visiting.

Advertising and Sponsored Content

Travel, Taste & Tour carries advertising. Advertising relationships with a destination, tourism board, or other advertiser do not determine whether that destination is covered editorially, and we do not guarantee coverage in exchange for payment.

When content is produced in partnership with an advertiser or sponsor, our intent is to identify it as such. Readers who have questions about whether a specific piece of content is sponsored may contact us at [email protected].

Corrections

We correct factual errors when they are identified. See our Corrections Policy for details.
