The Itinerary Disclosure
How this is made, and who pays for it
Every page here is researched by one person. There is no content feed behind it, nothing is syndicated, and nobody pays to be included.
How itineraries are made
- Sources are checked, not assumed. Visa rules, entry requirements and opening times come from the authority that sets them. Where sources disagree, the page says so rather than picking the convenient answer.
- Dates are on the page. Each itinerary carries the date it was last verified, and that date moves when the words move — not on every rebuild. A travel fact without a date is a rumour, so you can see the age of what you are reading.
- Budgets are costed line by line. Beds, food, getting around, things to do — totalled from the real figures in each guide, with the assumptions written out. No invented daily rates and no star-rating multipliers.
- Nobody pays to be here. No pay-for-placement, no sponsored itineraries, no hotel or operator buying a mention or a position. Recommendations are chosen on where they are and whether they are worth it, and that is the only reason any of them appear.
How the site pays for itself
Nothing on the site earns a commission today. There are no affiliate links live, and no advertising. The holiday packages are the one place money changes hands, and those are clearly marked as sold trips rather than itineraries — see the booking conditions.
