What people ask us

Most of the site is free: country guides, destination pages, the visa checker, seasons and budgets. The Cercle, our membership, opens the Carnet and its verified addresses, the visa Trousseau, the Récits, the Livre du Retour and fare watching — €14.99 a month or €149.99 a year.

Our record covers 199 passports and 198 destinations — 39,402 pairs — with a link to the official immigration portal of 167 countries. Rules change often: always confirm with the embassy or consulate of your destination before travelling. We cannot be held liable for information that has since changed.

Carnet addresses are reviewed twice a year. Prices, transport and airport data are reviewed quarterly. If you spot an error, write to us: we correct it within 48 hours.

Yes, and we say so. Our hotel and flight links fund the site. They never change a ranking or a recommendation: we show the best options regardless of any commercial relationship, and every partner link is marked as one.

Gladly. Write to us with the city and what you think deserves documenting there. Reader suggestions go to the front of the queue.

Rather than searching for a country or a city, the traveller’s DNA starts from what you want to feel — to be overwhelmed by history, to find silence, to be surprised — and brings destinations close to that state. It is a different door in than the map.

It sets destinations against what connects them: cultural kinship, flight routes, neighbouring atmospheres. It is for finding unexpected pairings — Tbilisi with Oman rather than Paris with Barcelona.

The Récits weave a piece of travel writing from the Carnet’s real addresses and the route you compose: five voices, and places that genuinely exist. It is a way to picture the journey before booking it. Reserved for Cercle members.

We collect the minimum the service needs, and we never sell personal data. The detail is in our privacy policy.

We accept limited, clearly disclosed advertising from travel businesses. Write to us for our media pack.
