Jill and Alessia met when they both worked at The Sunday Times as commissioning editors – Alessia on the travel supplement and Jill on the travel magazine.
Jointly, they’ve visited more than 500 destinations and countless ‘attractions’ – and while most were wonderful, some were utterly shit. Yet these are the ones you’ll see time and again listed as ‘unmissable sights’ in newspapers, magazines and blog posts.
Over cocktails one night, they started comparing notes about the most overhyped sights they’d seen, ranking them in order of shitness – and the idea of Shit Trips was born.
