Wonderful assignment, even though personally I dislike soccer. I would love to see stories about getting from town to town and around town during the cup madness. Is there adequate transportation? Are the fans (make that hooligans) rowdy or under control? What is the security like? The little stuff people do not get much of in the main stream media. Thanks and ENJOY!

I will be covering Cape Winelands, Cape Town, and Durban for the World Cup. I will also be visiting Egypt as well. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Hello, all! Via our new "Ask A Travel Expert" widget, we have a journalist query we hope you may be able to answer. If you'd like to reply, kindly click here.

"List of PR Contacts and their Clients?
Hi, I am a freelance travel writer with over 750 articles published in the US and worldwide (print and web) and would love to be put in touch with PR folks who have travel clients and who run press trips for writers. I wonder if such a list of PR companies and their clients exists? If not, I'd be more than happy for public relations companies to contact me with a view to adding me to their database for any upcoming trips. Clips of my work are available on request. I would need airfare provided and I live in San Francisco. Many thanks."

Again, please reply NOT on this comment wall but only at this link.

Jon & Lana, Thanks for the tips!

Hi am wondering if anyone knows if there is a list of public relations companies and who they might work for. I am looking to reach out to pr companies that would typically host writers for press trips (I have outlets and can get assignment letters so that is no problem.) Thanks so much for any information at all.

For John re: Mexico et al. Try contacting Raminta Tsopelas
