Disclosure and Editorial Policy
Honesty and authenticity are the core of our recommendations and the experiences we share here on HipTravelMama.com.

Periodically, we may also take trips that are sponsored by a travel company, airline, hotel, tourist attraction or consumer product. If a trip or experience was sponsored or paid for, we will disclose that information within the blog post or review. As always, you can always expect an authentic and honest opinion about our experience like you would from a trusted friend.
