We use GetYourGuide for one simple reason: it makes finding and booking great activities ridiculously easy. After travelling to 70+ countries and doing tours all over the world, we’ve learned that choosing the right experience can make or break a trip.
GetYourGuide consistently gives us:
-
reliable, well-reviewed activities

easy mobile tickets

flexible cancellation
-
and access to trusted local guides

It’s become the platform we use almost everywhere — from food tours and day trips to bucket-list experiences like glacier walks, volcano hikes and boat adventures.
We’ve pulled together a curated list of the GetYourGuide activities we’ve tried, loved, and genuinely recommend.
We always use the GetYourGuide app when travelling — it keeps all your tickets, meeting points, timings and instructions in one place.

Authentic Adventures with G Adventures
We’ve travelled with G Adventures for over 60 days across Africa, Asia, and South America — and some of our favourite moments of our world trip happened on their tours.

What we love about them:
-
small groups, not big buses
-
local guides who bring destinations to life

meaningful experiences that support local communities

reliable organisation (especially useful on complex routes)
When friends and followers ask us about group travel, G Adventures is always the first company we point them to.

Earn Rewards with American Express
If there’s one travel card we couldn’t live without, it’s American Express. We use it for almost everything — from booking flights and hotels to buying groceries — and it’s helped us turn everyday spending into free flights, upgrades, and travel perks all over the world.
American Express is perfect for anyone who wants to travel smarter. You’ll earn points or Avios on every purchase, enjoy built-in purchase protection, and often get access to exclusive travel offers and bonus rewards.
✈️ The card we use:
We personally have the British Airways American Express® Premium Plus Card, which gives us:
-
1.5 Avios for every £1 spent, or 3 Avios for every £1 on British Airways or BA Holidays purchases
-
A Companion Voucher each year after spending £10,000 — meaning a second person flies with you on the same Avios booking, just paying taxes and fees
-
Enhanced reward flight availability and strong travel insurance
💡 Our tip:
If you’re new to Amex, start with a fee-free card to get a feel for the benefits — there are great options that still let you earn points and access exclusive offers.
🎁 Exclusive offer:
Apply via our American Express referral link to receive a welcome bonus (the amount varies depending on which card you choose). It’s a simple way to make your spending work harder and start building rewards for your next adventure.
Earn More on Every Trip with Avios
If you love travelling as much as we do, every mile should count. Avios points can be collected on flights, hotels, car rentals, and even everyday purchases — helping you save money or upgrade future adventures.
💼 Our tip: link your British Airways Executive Club account to partners like Booking.com, Uber, and Nectar to earn faster.
💸 Free bonus points: Join Avios via our referral link and collect a welcome bonus to start building towards your next flight.

When you book using our links or codes, it costs you nothing extra — but it helps support The Postcard Dream and keeps our travel guides and tips completely free.
