About us

Welcome to Honest Travellers, where authenticity and adventure reign supreme! We are Andre and Mara, a couple of travel enthusiasts who met in Dubai and bonded over our shared love of exploration. As normal travelers just like you, we believe that genuine experiences should be at the heart of every trip. That’s why we’re committed to sharing unbiased reviews, candid stories, and real-life travel tips that will inspire you to plan your own unforgettable journey.

Tired of seeing staged photos and paid content? So are we! At Honest Travellers, we don’t rely on filters, presets, or photoshopped images to make our travels look “better.” Instead, we capture the beauty of the world as it is, using just our smartphones, a GoPro, and sometimes a regular camera. From breathtaking landscapes to mouth-watering cuisine, we bring you natural and unfiltered content that truly reflects our experiences.

Mara, on the other hand, is a media and communications specialist from Romania who speaks five languages fluently.
