The Travel Fieldbook is a collection of practical city guides: how to get there, how to get around, where to stay, what things cost and when to go. It exists to give travellers clear, practical answers, and no place pays to be included. Field notes, one city at a time.
Who’s behind it
I’m Francesco Longhitano, a software developer with over ten years in the trade and a passion for travel, technology and AI, especially agentic programming, where separate AI agents plan, research and write, and check one another’s work. The Travel Fieldbook is where those passions meet. I choose the cities and topics we cover, write the editorial standards each kind of guide has to meet, and test each new kind of guide on real articles before it joins the site. You can find me on LinkedIn.
How our guides are made
Our guides are researched and written by a system I built: a chain of AI agents, each with one job, alongside automated checks written in code.
- Research. A first agent works out what a traveller needs to know for that guide: the places to include, how the guide should be organised and which facts have to be checked.
- Fact-finding. A second agent looks up each of those facts. Details that change, such as ticket prices and fares, come from official sources like the attraction’s own website or the transport operator. Practical tips are kept only when several independent sources agree. If a fare can’t be found at its source, the guide leaves it out rather than guessing.
- Planning. With the facts in hand, the plan is revised, and places and sections are adjusted to match what the sources actually say.
- Writing and review. A writer agent drafts the guide from that plan, then a separate reviewer checks the draft against the facts and corrects anything that doesn’t match.
Before a guide is published, automated checks look at its structure, internal links, places and image credits.
Facts you can trace
The official sources behind ticket prices and fares are linked at the bottom of our guides, so you can check them yourself.
Real photos
The photos in our guides are real photographs from Wikimedia Commons, Unsplash and Pexels, chosen to show the actual place and credited to their photographers, as their licences require.
