The fine print

This site is run by John McKinney, The Red Beard Explorer. Everything here is shared to inform and entertain. Please read this before planning a trip around it.

My experiences, not a guarantee

The videos, blog posts and tips on this site come from my own trips. Prices, opening hours, visa rules, transportation and safety conditions change often, and what worked for me may not work for you. Always check official sources, like an embassy, airline or attraction website, before you book or travel.

Not professional advice

Nothing on this site is legal, financial, medical, immigration or other professional advice. Talk to a qualified professional about your own situation.

Travel and activities are at your own risk

Travel and outdoor activities like hiking, tours and adventure experiences come with real risks. You are responsible for your own decisions, safety and travel insurance. I'm not responsible for any loss, injury or damage that comes from using the information on this site.

Affiliate links and partners

Some links on this site are affiliate or referral links, which means I may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. My opinions are my own. Read my full disclosure.

Links to other sites

This site links to other websites, like YouTube, booking sites and partners. I don't control those sites and I'm not responsible for their content, prices or policies.
