Got a question about our publications? Try the list below—if you're still stuck, don’t hesitate to contact us and we’ll answer it as best as we can.
Because X is not a place. Ok, we’re kidding, but yes, you’re correct, we do not currently off PDF guides to everywhere, notably capital cities.
You don’t. As long as you get in touch before upgrading your account, we’ll credit back to you the cost of any guides you’ve already purchased. So if you’ve previously bough $20 worth of individual guides, it will cost you only $15 to become a premium member.
To do this, it is vital you contact us before you upgrade your account. Please contact us by email with your Travelfish username along with the email address you bought the guides with and we’ll be in touch with a direct link to pay the difference. Please do this before upgrading your account.
Exactly what is on the public site. This is an important point we want to stress. The destination guides listed above are simply all the public material pulled together into a single easy to use PDF document.
Try before you buy? Sure, why not. All readers who become Travelfish members get five guides for free. These are listed at the top of this page. You’ll see the guides include plenty of photos and maps along with the text from Travelfish.
Not really. There may be small differences, such as, in some cases, fewer photos in the guides, but generally, everything on the site is in the guide.
It is as up to date as what we have for that destination on the Travelfish website. If we haven’t revisited the destination since 1874, then the information will be from 1874. The year of research is appended to the guide title, so (2015) means the research for that destination was done in 2015, 2016 in 2016 and so on. Any guides reliant on research earlier than 2015 are not listed.
You don’t make it—we do. All guides are prepared by us following the completion of research to an area and the publication of the research on the main site. Once listed above, it is available for download by premium members.
No. Sorry. We’ve listed a few guides up above for you to take a look at first before parting with the money. If you don’t think they’re what you are after, then please stick to the public site.
No. We would very much prefer you did not do that. These guides are available only for subscribing premium members only.
Yes of course. However, the above have been reformatted and rearranged in a manner that makes them easy to read and use the minimum of paper. For instance, each place to stay has a mini-map immediately after the review—this isn’t the case if you print it off.
Yes. Where we can link to Agoda or Booking.com from the PDF, we do so. If you click through from the PDF and then make a booking, a commission may be paid to Travelfish.
