Affiliate Disclosure
WorldwideTravelPlans.com is owned and operated by Parallel Works LLC, a Maryland limited liability company. We believe in being upfront about how we make money, so here it is.
How affiliate links work on this site
Some links on this site are affiliate links, which means we earn a small commission if you click through and make a purchase or booking. These links are always marked with an arrow icon (↗) so you can spot them. You will never pay more by using our links — the price is the same whether you use our link or go directly to the site.
Our affiliate partners
All of our affiliate partnerships are managed through Travelpayouts, a travel affiliate network. Through Travelpayouts, we work with:
- Viator (a Tripadvisor company) — tours, activities, and experiences
- GetYourGuide — tours, activities, and experiences
- Booking.com — hotels, hostels, and accommodations
- Hostelworld — hostels and budget accommodations
- WayAway — flight search with cashback
What this means for our recommendations
Nothing. Our editorial recommendations are based on research, data, and real traveler experiences — not on which partners pay more. We recommend destinations, activities, and services because we believe they are genuinely useful, not because we earn a commission. We frequently recommend free activities, public transport, and budget options that earn us nothing.
If we ever feature a paid partnership or sponsored content (which is different from standard affiliate links), we will clearly label it as such.
Why we use affiliate links
Affiliate commissions help us keep this site free, fund research for new destination guides, and avoid cluttering pages with display ads. It is the primary way we plan to sustain this project.
