What this actually involves

Photographs on a booking site can be a decade old. We visit the property, record its current condition, confirm the rooms, access road, power and water situation, check whether the operator holds what they claim to hold, and report on the practical realities of getting there. Tour operators, DMCs and travel agents use this before adding a property to a package.

What you receive

  • Current photographs of rooms, grounds, access and facilities
  • Condition and capacity assessment against your criteria
  • Access and road condition notes, with travel times actually driven
  • Confirmation of operating status and stated licences where verifiable

Who commissions this

  • Tour operators and DMCs vetting new properties
  • Travel agents confirming a property before a client arrives
  • Investors assessing a hospitality asset
  • Marketing teams sourcing current, honest imagery

How it runs

  1. 1We agree the property and your criteria
  2. 2A researcher drives the access route, then visits and photographs the rooms, grounds and facilities
  3. 3You receive current photographs, condition notes and the travel times actually driven

What you provide

  • The property, camp, operator or route, and any booking listing you are relying on
  • Your criteria: rooms, access, power, water, capacity and the licences you need to see
  • Any dates when the property has to be seen in use, if that matters to you

Limits of this service

  • Condition is recorded as it was on the day of the visit, and can change after it
  • A licence is confirmed only where it can be checked. Otherwise we report what the operator showed us
  • We record against your criteria; we do not award a grade or a star rating
