How the site works

Tap the vibe. Share the moment.

Explore travel moods, find a place and leave a feel-first review. Register, choose the exact hotel, restaurant, flight, car service or other travel product, record your visit and tap your feelings. Add private evidence and declare that your experience is independent. A human moderator checks submissions before publication.

Read trust and experience together

TrustScore measures review evidence rather than how positive the review is. Qualifying evidence, account sign-in, review context, human checks and a limited contribution-history component support the score. Likes, money, sentiment and XP do not purchase trust. The current system is an evidence-based beta calculation with human moderation; automated AI verification is not active.

A product’s TrustScore summarises qualifying reviewers’ evidence scores. Its experience rating summarises their feelings with a small neutral prior to reduce early volatility. We use each traveller’s latest eligible review for that product. The most-received overall-vibe emoji gives a quick feeling; tied favourites can appear together. Always check the review count, recency, visit context and details. Early, growing and established labels indicate sample size, not certainty.

Review any travel product

A listing does not have to be an affiliate to receive reviews. You can suggest a missing product and our team checks its identity and location. A provider brand review is distinct from a review of an individual property, route or service.

XP makes contributing fun

Approved stories can earn five XP and approved reviews up to twenty XP, subject to a fifty-XP daily cap. Pending and rejected submissions do not earn XP. XP rewards participation; it is not proof that a claim is true.

Compare and book

The partner directory covers travel categories. An enabled, approved booking link may earn TripCritics an affiliate commission on a qualifying transaction under that programme’s rules. A click alone does not necessarily earn revenue. Live price comparison is awaiting supplier feeds, so we do not present sample prices as available offers. Commercial affiliation does not raise TrustScore.

Your circles, your choice

Save a place, share a caption using your device, or explore the Social page. Provider sign-in, publishing and importing are different permissions. Automatic social sync is awaiting active provider integrations. Previewing an imported story does not publish it.

Speak up

Report content, appeal a rejected submission or contact customer care. Moderators cannot approve their own reviews. Admin permissions and private evidence are restricted by staff role.
