Travel Conscious is a travel website with a focus on sustainable, green travel. In order to continuously provide free content to our readers, we use affiliate marketing, meaning that we get a commission when you purchase something listed on our website, but at no extra cost to you (e.g. a product, or a hotel booking, etc.). We also sometimes monetise the website with paid content, advertising, and sponsorship.
We do not work with brands that we don’t personally believe in, and we only work with affiliate partners that share our values and goals about environmental sustainability and socio-cultural ethics.
We may also be compensated for our opinions on certain products or services. However, the opinions and feedback are purely our own, and we strive to always be honest and genuine.
That being said, any claim, quote, or concern about a product or service should be verified directly with the relevant partner.
