Our approach

How we check information

We link advice to official information where available and show when facts were checked. We distinguish source research from firsthand experience. Entry requirements and other important rules receive human review before publication. Rules can change, so check the linked official source again before you travel.

AI assistance

How we use AI

AI helps us organise research, draft text and check consistency. People remain responsible for checking claims, confirming authorship and approving publication. AI-generated text is not evidence of firsthand travel experience.
