Iglu Travel Awards 2011
Posted by: Admin : Category: Luxury Travel
I’m pleased to announce that A Luxury Travel Blog has won a 2011 travel award from Iglu Cruise. In their own words:
Most people who write blogs do not produce useful material for travellers. In fact, few blogs are of any use to anybody at all. That’s why the Iglu team spend hours (if not days) on each category, making sure that deserving blogs – however obscure – are listed… Iglu gives the awards only to blogs which thoroughly deserve them. We won’t put our name to a website unless they have shown that they are experts in their fields and that they deal only with truth, fact, and relevance.
