Wikivoyage

What Wikivoyage actually is

Volunteer-written travel guides covering countries, cities, regions and themed itineraries, forked from an earlier commercial site so that the content stays free and advert-free. Articles carry practical detail on transport, food and safety alongside advice on where residents actually go.

Why it is worth your time

With no hotel paying for placement, the recommendations are unusually blunt about which famous sights are not worth the entry fee.
