Privacy Policy & Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: October 2026
Who we are
Famous Cities is an independent travel guide to some of the world's most famous cities. If you have any questions about this page, email thekunsaw@gmail.com.
Affiliate disclosure
Some links on this site—for example to hotels, homes, flights and tours—are affiliate links. If you click one and make a booking, Famous Cities may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. These partners do not pay to be mentioned in our city guides, and we only link to services we think travelers will find useful. Prices and availability are set by each partner and can change at any time.
Information we collect
You can read Famous Cities without creating an account or giving us any personal information. We only receive personal information, such as your name and email address, if you choose to email us.
Cookies and analytics
We may use a privacy-friendly analytics service to understand which pages and links are popular, such as page views, the country you are visiting from, your device type and which booking buttons are clicked. This information is used in aggregate to improve the site and is not used to identify you.
When you click an affiliate link, the partner website (for example Booking.com, Expedia or Viator) may place its own cookies in your browser so it can credit the booking to us. Those cookies are controlled by the partner and covered by its own privacy policy. Some outbound links may also be routed through affiliate networks such as Stay22 or Travelpayouts, which track the referral so the booking can be credited to this site.
This site also uses your browser's local storage to remember the city pages you have viewed and any travel dates you enter, so they are prefilled when you return. This information stays in your own browser, is never sent to us, and can be cleared by deleting your browser data.
Third-party content
Some pages include content from other services, such as embedded YouTube videos and links to social networks and Wikipedia. These services may collect information according to their own privacy policies when you interact with them.
Donations
If you choose to support Famous Cities with a donation, any payment is processed by the payment provider you use, and we do not store your card details.
Children
Famous Cities is a general travel guide and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Your choices
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time. If you have emailed us and want us to delete your message or contact details, just ask using the email address above.
