Affiliate Disclosure
Transparency is important to us. Last updated: December 2025
USA Tour Guides Blog participates in affiliate marketing programs, which means we may earn commissions from qualifying purchases or bookings made through links on this site — at no extra cost to you.
What Are Affiliate Links?
Some links on our website (to tours, hotels, booking platforms like Booking.com, Viator, GetYourGuide, or travel gear on Amazon) are affiliate links. When you click them and make a purchase or reservation, we receive a small commission from the provider.
Why We Use Affiliate Links
These commissions help support the ongoing costs of running this blog — including research, writing, photography, and server hosting — so we can continue providing free, high-quality travel guides and food/culture content for you.
Our Promise to You
- We only recommend products, services, and experiences we genuinely believe in and would use ourselves.
- Our editorial content and recommendations are never influenced by affiliates or commissions.
- All opinions are our own and based on personal experience or thorough research.
FTC Compliance
We fully comply with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines on disclosures. Affiliate links are clearly disclosed either on this page, in individual posts, or near the relevant links.
Thank you for supporting USA Tour Guides Blog! Your bookings and purchases through our links help us keep exploring and sharing America's best adventures with you.
