Before you join

A few good questions.

Talk to our team
Who will see my business?

AdvGuides serves outdoor travelers researching destinations and planning trips across our sites and mobile apps. Your placement is connected to relevant regional content. The network audience figures describe overall activity, not promised impressions for an individual listing.

What does “limited by market” mean?

We review openings by location and business category to keep local recommendations useful. Send your business details and we will confirm availability and the proposed placement before activation.

Do you take a booking commission?

Not from your Featured Local Partner listing. Its website and phone links connect travelers directly to your business. Separately, The Adventure Collective earns commissions on some experiences booked through partners such as FareHarbor and Viator.

How does discovery through AI agents work?

Travelers may research their next trip with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Muse. Our agent-first approach gives AI tools that access our discovery platform clear business facts, location context, and links to your website. It is another way to make your business easier to discover—not a paid placement or partnership with those services. Access and recommendations depend on each tool; inclusion is not guaranteed.

What do I need to provide?

Start with your business name, location, website, and contact information. If the partnership is a fit, we will ask for accurate business details and photos you have permission to publish, then prepare the listing for your review.

What happens after I inquire?

Our team reviews your business and market availability, then follows up about fit, placement, and next steps. You review the details before your listing is activated. This inquiry does not charge you or reserve a spot.
