Affiliate disclosure & sponsorships

We partner with select tours and hotels through affiliate networks. Links are clearly marked with "Trusted Partner" labels. Commissions do not affect price for you. Sponsored experiences undergo the same review criteria and are labeled in-line.

Fact-checking workflow

  1. Primary researcher gathers notes, audio, and images on-site.
  2. Secondary editor verifies claims against official data (permits, schedules, health records).
  3. Legal review checks compliance with FTC and ADA guidelines.
  4. Final approval requires two signatures before publishing updates.
