Rick Steves has spent 100 days every year since 1973
exploring Europe. Rick produces a public television series (Rick
Steves' Europe), a public radio show (Travel with Rick
Steves), and an app and podcast (Rick Steves Audio
Europe); writes a bestselling series of guidebooks and a
nationally syndicated newspaper column; organizes guided tours that
take thousands of travelers to Europe annually; and offers an
information-packed website (RickSteves.com). With the help of his
hardworking staff of 80 at Europe Through the Back Door--in
Edmonds, Washington, just north of Seattle--Rick's mission is to
make European travel fun, affordable, and culturally broadening for
Americans.
Steve Smith manages tour planning for Rick Steves' Europe
Through the Back Door and has been researching guidebooks with Rick
for two decades. Fluent in French, he's lived in France on several
occasions, starting when he was seven, and has traveled there
annually since 1986. Steve's wife, who is an expert on French
cuisine and wine, provides invaluable contributions to his books,
as do his two children.
