How the guides are prepared
The texts are prepared with AI editorial assistance using the sources listed in each article. Links to tourism offices, public bodies and operators let readers consult the underlying information. Documentary research does not replace a visit; we do not claim to have personally tested the accommodation or activities mentioned.
Dates, changes and limitations
Each article displays its publication, update and documentary verification dates. A source access date records when the source was checked; it does not guarantee that every detail remains unchanged. Opening times, prices, access, weather and services may change: check official pages before travelling or booking.
Planning tools provide estimates and practical selections, not quotations or live availability. Illustrative photographs and any modifications are identified in the credits.
Independence and corrections
This independent guide is not an official municipal or tourism-office website. It does not take bookings or sell holidays. To report an error, identify the guide, the relevant passage and, if possible, a verifiable source.
