SUMMARY

Standards to aim for.

Questions about these standards can be sent to [email protected].

These standards describe how the site aims to work. They do not claim a formal editorial team or workflow.

Information on routes, prices, opening times, safety and availability can change. Travel pages link to official sources where they exist; check those before you book or travel.

01 / 05

Source selection and attribution

For historical and geographic facts, prioritize recognized heritage institutions and official tourism agencies. For services, schedules and price information, link to the provider or operator wherever possible.

If a detail cannot be confirmed, say so. Distinguish between a verified fact, an illustrative suggestion and a personal recommendation backed by actual experience. Do not invent first-hand visits or testimonials.

02 / 05

Prices, opening hours and safety

Only include a numeric amount when it comes from an identifiable source and is paired with its route, service or booking context and a date. Do not present an example quote as a guaranteed fare.

Coastal conditions, tour availability and public access can change. Safety information is general and does not replace guidance from qualified professionals or local authorities.

03 / 05

Images, creators and originality

Every image should be used with permission or a valid licence, with credit where required and an accurate description. The site currently uses licensed stock photographs, so a picture may illustrate the region rather than show the exact place named.

Captions and alt text should describe the actual image; they are not a place to force search keywords. Use authentic original photography and first-hand detail when available.

Recommendations and future partnerships

The initial website provides travel information rather than booking transactions. If affiliate links, paid placements, complimentary experiences or local partner relationships are introduced, they should be clearly disclosed near the relevant content.

Commercial relationships should never be presented as independent consumer reviews. Partner statements require verification.

05 / 05

Corrections and review process

The steps when a verifiable error is reported: check the primary source, update the page and, where the change could affect a traveller’s decision, say what was corrected. An accurate page matters more than the original wording.

Corrections can be sent to [email protected]. No review team or response time is published.

VISITOR QUESTIONS

About our standards.

Short answers about how the site is meant to work. Confirm changeable travel details with the relevant operator or authority.

Does the site guarantee transport prices?

No. Any price example needs a source, date, route and an instruction to confirm current availability.

Are commercial relationships disclosed?

Future sponsorship and affiliate relationships should be explicitly disclosed when they exist.

Can visitors request a correction?

Yes, by email to [email protected]; the steps are on the Corrections page. No response time is promised.
