Grounded Travel is a website dedicated to overland, flightless travel information. The site contains detailed information, regularly updated by the Grounded Travel community, on overland routes and journeys throughout the world by rail, road and sea.

The site was created to provide an easy way for people to discover how easy it is to get around Europe without flying. Its creators are great believers in travelling overland, rather than by plane, not only due to the environmental benefits but also the benefits it brings to the whole travelling experience.

Grounded Travel was originally launched in 2008 by Ed and Helen, who both live in London, UK. Both believe that there are common misconceptions relating to the difficulty and time associated with flightless travel, and hope that Grounded Travel will assist with the promotion of overland travel not only as a sustainable alternative, but also a more enjoyable way to experience the journey as well as the destination.
