Many years of travelling and really enjoying National and State Parks in the USA, and National Parks in Britain, have provided a good insight into the essential features to see and things to do.
Colin Butterworth has had a varied career in engineering, computing, accounting, property management and investment.
Sue Peters has been the director of a group of independent bookshops, and is now a part-time reflexologist with particular interest in natural remedies and diets to help many ailments.
Both have a passionate interest in the outdoors, history and the discovery of interesting places to visit. They also are very involved in playing classical music, gardening and looking after their cottage home.
Over many years, they found that there were so many books to read, and so much tourist information to absorb on arrival at each destination, that precious time was lost in trying to discover the most advantageous points of interest.
Fly-drives provided an initial method in visiting the National Parks of the USA, but so much was missed because of poor information. They became frustrated with inadequate itineraries, and decided they could write much clearer, informative and correct itineraries. itforit was created in 1999 from a desire to share the months of preparation and research that went into every itinerary.
A lifetime of visiting the National Parks has not been wasted, and they are equally at home in the cooler climates in their home country of the UK, or in the warmer temperatures of the USA.
As online facilities grew, it became too obvious that traditional fly-drive packages were not necessary any longer - as flights, car-hire and accommodation had become so easy to book from home. The difficulty remained in what to see and do in the right order. itforit had found a unique market, with a factual and honest style of writing. |
