From idea to itinerary

How it works, from brief to departure.

A clear process, with a price you agree before paying, research done carefully and the final decisions still yours.

  1. 1. Tell us about your trip

    Share the destination, dates, who is travelling, pace, priorities, budget, confirmed bookings and any food or access needs. The brief has nine short steps and nothing is sent until you choose to submit. There is no payment at this stage.

  2. 2. We review your brief

    We check the scope and whether we can research it properly, then confirm the right product, the price and the expected delivery date. If something needs clarifying we ask. If we cannot plan your trip well, we tell you and you pay nothing.

  3. 3. You agree the price and pay

    Once your trip is accepted you receive a private order page showing the agreed price. You pay securely online, and planning starts only after payment is confirmed.

  4. 4. We research and plan

    Your FieldGuide is built around your actual arrival and departure times, priorities and realistic travel between places. Target preparation for 3 to 14-day trips is 3 to 7 working days from a complete brief; the expected date is confirmed before you pay.

  5. 5. You receive your FieldGuide

    One usable plan: the days, routes, transport guidance, places to eat, alternatives for bad weather and the bookings worth making. It arrives as a private interactive online guide on your own link, with a Today view while you travel. For offline use, open it on your phone while you are connected and check that it opens in flight mode before you travel; your phone’s browser keeps that copy and can remove it if browser data is cleared. Maps, live weather and directions need an internet connection. You can also print it or save it as a PDF.

  6. 6. One round of reasonable changes

    Ask for reasonable changes within 14 days of delivery and before you travel. Major changes to dates, destination or the travelling party may need re-scoping.

  7. 7. Pre-travel checks

    Where the timing allows, important time-sensitive details are checked again around 7 days and 48 hours before you travel.

  8. 8. Track it any time

    Your FieldGuide reference and status page show where your trip is, from review to delivery.
