How we write travel guides
Last reviewed: 2026-08-07
TravelShifu guide method: answer-first sections, 40–60 word extractable answers, dated facts with primary sources, and disclosed affiliate links.
Page contract
Every guide reaches a verdict and says who it is not for. Question-shaped headings are followed by a 40–60 word extractable answer, then supporting body. Specific numbers carry a primary source and a capture date when we publish them; if we cannot source a number today, we omit it.
Partners
Only live partners from our partner registry appear in CTAs or prose. Defunct programmes are forbidden. Affiliate links are disclosed on the page and labelled before the click. Prefer the clearer or cheaper option even when we earn nothing.
