Getaway
’s impressively broad editorial mix satisfies not only the 4x4 traveller, doughty adventurer and experienced hiker, but also the weekend escapee, concerned environmentalist, passionate photographer and armchair traveller; hence our payoff line: Going places, doing things in Africa.

Destinations are an important focus for Getaway, but so, too, is the gear readers like to use. Readers place great value on our accommodation and gear directories. Getaway provides all the information needed to plan a great, well-kitted holiday, while the website gives readers the tool to do this easily on-line.

Our latest innovation is true-to-print look and feel digital editions of Getaway magazine. This development allows us to create new revenue streams and provide value-added solutions for advertisers and subscribers while reducing our overall print, paper and postage costs. And in true Getaway style, it also allows us to promote an environmentally conscience solution to print.
   

Our digizines offer readers an easy-access electronic edition of the monthly magazines in the RamsayMedia stable, while giving advertisers another touchpoint for reaching audiences. The complete issue of consumers’ favourite magazines – at half of the cover price of the print editions!

Getaway made its TV début early in 2009 with a travel show called Getaway to Africa, which explored the people and cultures of Southern Africa. Visit the website to view video clips of the 13 episodes (available soon on DVD). We are currently working on season two of the series, together with Cooked in Africa Films, to create even better high-definition travel content focusing on Namibia and South Africa.
 

Established in 1992, the Getaway Show is the leading tourism, adventure travel, holiday and leisure expo in Africa, offering our travel and tourism marketers, vehicle manufacturers, adventure clients and outdoor product suppliers a 3D platform for retail, product demonstrations and interactive brand promotion.
