The Fine Print
* To be selected as a SlowTrav Favorite, the agency/owner must have a classified
listing on Slow Travel. Why? For several reasons: it means that we have a
"business relationship" with them; We have current contact information and
can email them with questions or if any problems arise; they know about the
website and want people from this community to book with them; they support
the website and what we do in the travel world. An agency/owner cannot "purchase"
favorite status by purchasing a classified, but we require that they have
a classified before we will consider them for a favorite.
Agencies/Owners may be removed from the list if we
receive several "bad" reviews, if we are no longer receiving reviews for
them, or if they no longer have a classified listing with us.
