Why Trust Us
The internet is full of travel writing produced by people who got a free stay in exchange for a glowing review. We think that's a conflict of interest. Here's how we work.
Editorial Standards
Every trip you read about on Dream Book & Travel was paid for by us. We book our own flights, pay for our own hotels, and eat at our own expense. Nobody comps us anything in exchange for coverage.
When we recommend a place, it's because we've been there. When we say something is overrated, we've been there too and formed that opinion ourselves.
We update articles when things change. An "updated" date at the top of an article means we've verified the information is still accurate — it's not a timestamp on a minor copy edit.
Affiliate Disclosure
Some links in our articles are affiliate links. This means if you click through and book or buy something, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.
We disclose these relationships on every article they appear in. We never recommend something because it has an affiliate program. We recommend it because it's genuinely good, and if there's an affiliate link available we'll use it — but the recommendation comes first.
If there's no affiliate link available for something we recommend, we link to it anyway. The editorial judgment is always independent of the commercial relationship.
Who We Are
Dream Book & Travel is an independent editorial travel site. We write about where to go, how to get there, and what to do when you arrive. We focus on the three things that matter most: the destination itself, the planning that gets you there, and the on-the-ground experience.
We don't cover everywhere. We cover places we've been, in a depth that makes the article worth reading.
