Editorial policy

Research comes first

• We gather current information for each destination from published sources: official tourism and immigration bodies, airline and transport schedules, and reputable travel publications. Each fact we use is stored with the source it came from.
• Destination research is refreshed at least every 90 days and departure-city information every 30 days. Visa information is researched fresh every time a visa guide is updated, because entry rules change often.
• Prices on our pages come only from our own holiday catalogue and are labelled as indicative starting prices. A personalised quote confirms the exact cost. We do not publish prices we cannot support.

How pages are written

• The writing tools may use only facts from that research. Prices, temperatures, flight times, distances and the names of hotels and businesses must come from the research or our catalogue.
• Before a draft is saved, an automated check compares every figure and hotel name against the research. Anything that cannot be matched to a source is removed or replaced with general wording. We would rather leave a number out than guess it.
• Each page follows a fixed structure for its topic, so a best-time guide covers every month, a visa guide covers documents, fees and processing, and a holiday page shows its day-by-day plan.

Human review before anything is published

• Every page is reviewed by a member of our travel team before it goes live. The reviewer’s name and role appear at the top of the page, with the date the page was last updated.
• Reviewers check that the page is accurate, useful and honest about trade-offs: who a destination or holiday suits, and who it does not.
• Visa guides are reviewed with particular care and always tell you to confirm requirements with the official immigration authority, embassy or consulate before you apply or travel.

Notes from our specialists

Holiday ideas are not instant bookings

Keeping pages current

• Pages show the date they were last updated.
• When research is refreshed, a price changes or a rule changes, the affected pages are reviewed again.
• Pages that no longer offer something useful are taken out of search results until they do.
