Travel

Your destination, licensed, owned or shared.

Three packages for destinations and tourism boards, chosen by what you want to hold at the end: Reels on a licence, a library you own outright, or work that also goes out from our own accounts while we are there. Two people travel, and you cover the trip rather than a day rate. From £1,800.

Questions

Asked by tourism boards before booking.

Do we own the footage?

On the Full Destination Feature and the Brand Ambassador Trip, yes. Full buyout. The destination owns the footage outright, with no end date, no platform limit and the right to sub-license it on. On Destination Reels you hold a licence: organic use on your own channels, and paid media for 12 months.

Can operators and partners use the content?

Yes, from the Full Destination Feature up: the right to sub-license is part of the buyout.

Will you post about us on your own channels?

Only on the Brand Ambassador Trip, and only during the trip. Every post is labelled as a paid partnership, using the platform tag and a visible hashtag. That is not optional and it is not negotiable: an undisclosed ad breaches the CAP Code and the risk lands on you as the advertiser, not on us. More on what that trip buys in our guide to the Brand Ambassador Trip.

Who writes the feature?

We do, from the trip, and you publish it under any byline. It comes with the Feature and the Trip.

Where will you film?

Anywhere you cover the trip to. We have filmed in Italy, Spain, Bulgaria and the UK.

Decide what you want to own.
