Longitude is a small travel house in Edinburgh. Nine journeys a year, eight travellers at most, five regions we actually know — planned eleven months out by the three people who answer the phone.https://longitude.example/en-gbhttps://longitude.example/journal/four-things-we-will-not-book/https://longitude.example/journal/four-things-we-will-not-book/No captive animals, no bed we have not slept in, no helicopter for the view, no one-night stops. Every year somebody offers to pay extra. Every year the answer is the same.Fri, 28 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMThouse rulesplanningdesk@longitude.example (Ines Cadoret)https://longitude.example/journal/eleven-months-is-not-a-marketing-number/https://longitude.example/journal/eleven-months-is-not-a-marketing-number/Why our books close 240 days before a departure, what we do with the time, and the one journey where we have tried to shorten it.Tue, 14 Jul 2026 00:00:00 GMTplanningmoneydesk@longitude.example (Dougal Sim)https://longitude.example/journal/what-a-fixer-actually-does/https://longitude.example/journal/what-a-fixer-actually-does/Ndapewa Shituula has run the Skeleton Coast for us since 2018.
