Guest Posting Guidelines

Do you have awesome travel tips or stories to share? I love to feature fellow travel bloggers! If you’re a travel blogger with your own legitimate website, this is a great opportunity to showcase your work.

Please note, this is for individual bloggers—not companies. I do not accept paid dofollow links.

Here’s what I’m looking for:

• You can pick the topic, but I’m more likely to accept articles about destinations I’ve covered. You can check out where I’ve been for ideas.
• Articles should be at least 1,500 words with clear keywords (the more detailed, the better!). Both I and Google love thorough blog posts!
• Content must be 100% original, not posted anywhere else, and it must not sound AI-generated—I want authentic, personal stories, and tips. You can use AI to generate outlines, but please do not use it for the entire article and fact check it.
• All photos must be your own and not stock photos.
• Travel guides are popular, so posts like itineraries or things-to-do guides are a great fit. You’ll also get to include a link to your own travel blog in the post.

I reserve the right to edit the post and add affiliate links if applicable.
