1. Agreement
By using shoestringdrift.com you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
2. What this site is
Shoestring Drift publishes editorial travel information: destination guides, cost breakdowns, route itineraries and gear advice. It is general information only. It is not professional advice and it is not a booking service.
3. Travel information is perishable
Prices, timetables, visa rules, entry requirements and opening hours change without notice, and sometimes with very little notice. We give the date of research where we can, but you must verify anything critical — especially visa and entry requirements — with the relevant official authority before you travel. Do not rely on this site as your only source for a decision that affects your safety, your legal status or your money.
4. No liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any loss, injury, delay, expense or damage arising from your use of this site or from reliance on its content, including decisions about travel, accommodation, transport, insurance or gear. You travel at your own risk. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.
5. Third-party links
We link to airlines, booking platforms, insurers and other third parties. We do not control those sites and we are not responsible for their content, prices, availability or terms. Your dealings with them are between you and them. Some of those links are affiliate links — see our Affiliate Disclosure.
6. Intellectual property
All original text, layout and graphics on this site belong to Shoestring Drift unless stated otherwise. You may quote short extracts with a link back to the source page. You may not republish articles in full, or reuse them to train or populate another website, without written permission.
7. Acceptable use
Do not attempt to disrupt the site, scrape it at volume, or use it for anything unlawful. We reserve the right to block access where we see abuse.
8. Advertising
Display advertising on this site is served by third parties. The presence of an advertisement is not an endorsement by us of the advertised product or service.
9. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. The version published on this page at the time of your visit is the version that applies.
