Editorial Policy

How We Create Our Guides

Every guide on Auckland.kiwi goes through a multi-step editorial process designed to produce accurate, practical, and genuinely helpful travel content.

Research

Our guides are built on verified data from licensed tour operators and official attraction listings. Tour details (prices, ratings, durations, inclusions) come directly from provider APIs and are updated regularly. We supplement this with local knowledge of Auckland and its surroundings.

Writing

We use AI writing tools to help draft guides, with specific prompts grounded in real product data and verified factual context. Every guide follows structured templates tailored to its type (listicle, neighbourhood guide, comparison, etc.) to ensure consistent quality and completeness.

Review

Each guide goes through an automated editorial review that scores content across eight categories: readability, SEO, accuracy, engagement, tone, structure, template adherence, and link quality. Guides that don't meet our quality threshold are revised before publishing.

Accuracy

We never invent tour names, prices, ratings, or other product details. All product information comes from verified provider data. When we draw on general knowledge (geography, weather, cultural context), we stick to well-established facts and use hedging language when less certain.

Updates

Travel information changes. We regularly update guides when tour prices, availability, or details change. Each guide displays its publication date and last updated date so you can see how current the information is.

AI Disclosure

We use AI tools in our content creation process. This helps us produce comprehensive, data-rich guides at a level of detail that would be difficult to maintain manually across hundreds of tours and attractions. Every piece of AI-assisted content is reviewed against our quality standards before publishing.

Contact

If you spot an error in any of our guides, or have feedback about our content, please get in touch. We take accuracy seriously and will correct verified issues promptly.
