Go Beyond The Brochure Borders And Travel 'Like A Local'

STUDIO CITY (CBS) — Want to tour the world like a local?

Travel Expert Peter Greenberg visited the KCAL9 studios Monday to talk about his new book series "Like a Local."

The series shows readers where to go and what to do to ensure the best travel experience, exactly as if you were a local yourself.

"Like a Local" debuted in April and includes five destinations: Buenos Aires, the Caribbean, Cuba, Miami and New Orleans. For each locale, the "Like a Local" series offers a new twist on traditional travel guides by providing a detailed array of insider tips and local knowledge that help visitors become immersed in a region. Travelers using the "Like a Local" guides will get the inside story on cultural etiquette, the people, the history, culinary traditions and many other authentic experiences.

Greenberg is signing copies of his books Monday night at Distant Lands Book Store, 20 S. Raymond Avenue in Pasadena.
