About Us

Curated journeys for the discerning explorer

Our Story

Welcome to Pickytraveller, your trusted companion for curated travel experiences. We believe that every journey should be extraordinary, and we're here to help discerning travellers find destinations, stays, and experiences that truly resonate.

Founded by a team of seasoned travelers who grew tired of generic recommendations, we set out to create a platform that celebrates quality over quantity. Our carefully curated content focuses on hidden gems, boutique accommodations, and authentic experiences that most travelers never discover.

Every article on Picky Traveller is the result of firsthand experience, thorough research, and a genuine passion for meaningful travel. We don't just tell you where to go – we help you understand why a destination deserves your time and how to experience it like an insider.

Our Mission

Our mission is to elevate the art of travel by connecting discerning explorers with exceptional destinations and experiences. We believe that:

  • Quality matters more than quantity – fewer destinations, deeper experiences
  • Authenticity creates lasting memories
  • Thoughtful travel benefits both visitors and local communities
  • Every traveller deserves access to insider knowledge

Through our expertly curated guides and recommendations, we aim to transform ordinary trips into extraordinary journeys that leave lasting impressions.
