From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ENTREE Travel Newsletter (established 1981) is a travel newsletter by American writer Bill Tomicki.[1][2][3] It bills itself as "An uncompromising and confidential travelers newsletter."[4]

As of 2014, it has over 22,000 subscribers.[5] Tomicki said then when it started in 1981, it was the third travel newsletter in the industry.[1] It is targeted to upscale clientele, Tomicki said Entree's average reader is between 45 and 55, and has a household income of $455,000 a year.[6]

In 2006, Tomicki described the newsletter operations: "I have a staff of 12--four permanent people based in Santa Barbara, Calif.," where he lives, "and eight stringers around the world who contribute information, which I then edit and assemble in the newsletter."[6]

The newsletter has been reviewed in the Chicago Tribune,[6] The New York Times,[3][7] and the Los Angeles Times.[8]
