Editorial policy

Open Travel Review aims to publish clear, accurate travel writing that helps readers weigh choices. We treat accuracy as an ongoing responsibility, not a claim that every detail will remain current forever.

Accuracy and context

We check factual statements against appropriate information before publication and write with care about place, culture and context. Travel details may change, so pieces that depend on current arrangements should be read with that in mind; readers should consult relevant current sources where a decision depends on them.

Independence

Editorial decisions are made for readers, not as a condition of a commercial arrangement. A partnership does not promise favourable coverage, and we do not present a partner's claims as independent editorial judgment.

Corrections

If a reader spots an error, they can contact us through the Contact page and identify the article and detail. We review correction requests and amend material when warranted, making meaningful corrections clear to readers.

Partner material and illustrations

Sponsored or partner material is labelled so readers can distinguish it from independent editorial work. Some illustrations may be AI-generated; where relevant, that is stated alongside the illustration. Images are not offered as evidence that a depicted place or scene was documented.
