Affiliate & Advertising Disclosure

We believe you deserve to know exactly how Explore Luxor makes money and how – or whether – that affects what we write. This page explains everything, plainly and completely.

Explore Luxor is an independent platform. Running it requires time, research, writing, photography, and technical maintenance. We are transparent about how we cover these costs.

Explore Luxor is a member of the Mediavine ad network. Mediavine is a full-service ad management platform that works with advertising partners to serve ads that may be personalised based on your browsing behaviour, interests, and device information.

The presence of display advertising does not influence our editorial content.

Some pages on Explore Luxor contain affiliate links. If you click on a link and make a purchase or booking, we may earn a small commission – at no additional cost to you.

Explore Luxor does not publish sponsored articles, advertorials, or any content where a third party has paid for a favourable review, mention, or coverage.

We decline all such offers. If in the future we were ever to publish a piece of content that involved any form of commercial arrangement, it would be clearly and prominently labelled as “Sponsored” or “Paid Partnership” at the top of the page.

Explore Luxor occasionally enters into partnerships with organisations whose values and mission align with ours. Our rules for any partnership are strict:

Current commercial partnerships: None at this time. This section will be updated if and when any partnerships are established.

Our editorial decisions – what we cover, how we cover it, what we recommend, and what we criticise – are made entirely by our editorial team. No advertiser, affiliate partner, sponsor, government body, or commercial interest influences our content.

Our full editorial standards are described in our Editorial Policy.

Explore Luxor publishes a free newsletter managed via Brevo. Subscribing is free and we never share or sell subscriber email addresses. If we ever include a sponsored message in a newsletter edition, it will be clearly labelled as such.

We make disclosures easy to find. Here is what to look for:

If you ever read a page and are unsure whether any commercial relationship exists, please email us at [email protected].

Transparency is not a document – it is a practice. If you have any questions about our funding, our commercial relationships, or anything on this page, we want to hear from you.

Email us at [email protected]. We read every message and respond personally.
