ABOUT THE BACKYARD EXCURSIONS
“CLOSE TO HOME” CONCEPT
     
 

The idea for Backyard Excursions was born back in 2003 when gas prices started to rise. People were not traveling long distances out of necessity; instead they were looking for places they could travel to using one tank of gas or less. So was born the idea for Backyard Excursions - providing people with “close to home” travel ideas.

Fast forward to today and here we go again—money has never been tighter, yet our circulation numbers increase each and every month, proving that people still want to travel and enjoy themselves; they just want to do it closer to home.

This makes Backyard Excursions the perfect advertising outlet for you. You no longer have to spend massive amounts of money advertising in a broad range of publications.

By advertising with Backyard Excursions, you can target the greatest number of travelers in areas where they are most likely to come from - near you!

Backyard Excursions makes a perfect complement to your current marketing efforts!
