Hello, friend! Whether you have a question about a trip you are planning, spotted something on the blog that needs updating, or want to write for The Travel Chicken, I would love to hear from you. I read every message myself and usually reply within three to five working days (a little longer if I am somewhere with terrible Wi-Fi).
Prefer email? Write to me directly at info@thetravelchicken.com. For guest posts, please include “Guest Post” in the subject line.
Guest posts: yes, please (travel only!)
I accept guest posts from fellow travelers, travel writers and travel businesses, as long as the article is genuinely useful to someone planning a trip. Topics I am happy to publish include:
- Destination guides and itineraries based on your own trip
- Airports, layovers, transfers and getting around
- Car rentals, road trips and driving abroad
- Hotels, resorts, hostels, villas and other accommodation
- Tours, cruises, travel packages and day trips
- Travel gear, packing, budgeting, travel insurance and visas
- Food and culture experiences tied to a destination
What I do not accept
To keep this blog helpful and trustworthy, I will not publish (or reply to) pitches about or linking to:
- Casinos, betting, gambling or lottery sites, even “travel to Las Vegas” pieces that are really about gambling
- Adult content, dating or escort services
- CBD, cannabis, vapes or pharmacy sites
- Crypto, forex, payday loans or other financial products
- Essay writing services, SEO link farms or anything unrelated to travel
- AI-generated or spun articles, or content already published elsewhere
Guest post guidelines
- Original and exclusive: at least 1,200 words, written by a human, never published anywhere else.
- Based on real experience: tell us what you did, what it cost and what you would do differently.
- Your own photos or properly licensed images (Unsplash and Pexels are fine, credit included).
- Links: one relevant do-follow link in your author bio, plus links to authority sources where they help the reader. No affiliate links inside the article.
- Editing: I may edit for clarity, grammar, length and SEO. I publish on my own schedule.
Ready to pitch? Choose Guest post pitch in the form below and send me your proposed title, a short outline and one or two samples of your writing. Please do not send a full article on the first email.

Please note: I do not sell links, run sponsored “casino guides” or offer paid placements outside travel. Pitches that ignore these rules are deleted without a reply. Questions? Email info@thetravelchicken.com.
