Who we are
PorConocer is a digital travel and tourism publication. We have been publishing since January 2012 and in that time we have gathered more than 16,000 articles about destinations around the world: from cities you can explore in a weekend to routes that call for three weeks and a healthy budget.
We write for those who have already decided they want to travel and need the following: how many days are required, how much it costs, what is needed to enter the country and what to eat there. No wish lists of dream destinations without a single useful fact.
What you will find here
The archive is organized into sections that answer the questions people ask before buying a ticket:
- Places of interest, our most extensive section: what to see in each destination and how much time to spend there.
- Accommodation: which neighborhood is best to stay in and why.
- Gastronomy: what to eat in each place, when, and at what price.
- Customs and traditions: festivals, opening hours and local ways worth knowing before you arrive.
- Means of transport: how to get around by land, sea and air, with timings and alternatives.
- Leisure and culture: museums, festivals and events.
- Tips and Legislation: visas, tourist taxes, documentation and entry rules.
- News: what is changing in the sector and affects travellers.
How we work
All articles are signed by the person who wrote them and display the publication date and, if they have been revised later, the update date. A destination changes — taxes rise, a museum closes, a new train line opens — so we prefer to revisit what we have published rather than let it age.
When an artificial intelligence tool takes part in preparing a piece, we say so in the article itself. This is not fine print: it is information the reader has the right to know.
In eight languages
PorConocer is published in Spanish and is automatically translated into English, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Arabic and Japanese, always based on the original Spanish version. If you find a translation that is hard to understand or says something different from the original, let us know: it helps us correct it.
Who is behind it
PorConocer is part of BlogdeBlogs, the network of thematic media published by Blog Solutions. We are funded by advertising, which is what allows everything we publish to remain free.
