About and editorial policy

How the Lorne guides are written, checked and linked to booking partners.

Keith Schembri writes the Lorne guides on this site. A published guide names the pages it was checked against. It does not state prices, fares, ratings or availability.

What a guide is for

Each guide answers one trip question about Lorne or the Great Ocean Road. It names the pages that were checked. Operator sites, the local council, the Victorian Tourism Commission, Melbourne Metro and Melbourne Airport are preferred when they are the source of a fact.

A guide does not state prices, fares, ratings or availability. Those change. Confirm them on the venue or partner page before you book.

Booking links

Stays use Booking.com, or the stay page on this site when that is the checked link. Flights continue on Kiwi.com, or on the flights page on this site. Experiences use GetYourGuide, or the activity page on this site. Car hire uses Rentalcars, or the car-hire page on this site. Dining links to the venue. A guide does not use a substitute flight, tour or car-hire network, and it does not wrap a booking link in a tracking program this site has stopped using.

Some partner links may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. The partner sets the price and the terms.

Photographs

Every photo is a real photo, credited with its source and licence. Listing photos come from the booking partner's listing.
