Disclaimer
Editorial honesty
Every itinerary, restaurant, hotel, and recommendation on Desk2Destinations is something we paid for and experienced ourselves. We weren't comped, sponsored, or asked to write about it.
Affiliate links
Some outbound links — hotels, flights, gear, travel insurance — are affiliate links. If you book through them, we earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. We only ever link to things we genuinely used and would book again. It helps us pay for the next trip and keeps the blog ad-free.
Accuracy & freshness
Travel changes. Prices, opening hours, visa rules, ferry schedules, exchange rates, and immigration policies move constantly. We note the trip month at the top of every diary so you know how old the information is. Always cross-check anything time-sensitive (especially visas and opening hours) with the official source before you book.
Not professional advice
We're software professionals who travel — not financial planners, travel agents, immigration lawyers, or doctors. Nothing on this site is professional advice. If you need it, get it from a licensed professional.
Personal experience only
What was magical for us at sunrise in Coorg might be underwhelming for you in heavy rain. We share what we saw, ate, and felt. Your trip will be your own.
Photography
Photos marked with our watermark or in galleries labelled "ours" are taken by us. Stock imagery from Unsplash and Wikimedia Commons is credited where used and remains the property of the original photographer under their respective licences.
AI usage
Some long-form posts may be lightly edited with AI assistance for grammar, structure, or phrasing. The travel experiences, opinions, recommendations, and itineraries are entirely human — written by us based on trips we actually took.
Liability
By using the recommendations on this site, you agree that Desk2Destinations is not liable for any losses, missed flights, ruined dinners, or other travel mishaps that may arise. Travel responsibly, buy insurance, and confirm details with official sources.
