Write for Us – Become a Travel Blog Contributor

Travel has a way of changing people. Sometimes it changes how you see a city. Sometimes it changes how you see yourself. And sometimes, it leaves you with stories that deserve more than a forgotten camera roll or a half-written note on your phone.

That’s where this opportunity begins.

If you’ve ever felt the urge to share what the road taught you—beyond Instagram captions—our Write for Us – Become a Travel Blog Contributor program is built for you. We’re opening our platform to thoughtful travelers, practical explorers, slow wanderers, culture lovers, and honest storytellers who believe travel writing should feel real, useful, and human.

Why We’re Inviting Travel Contributors

The internet doesn’t need more recycled “Top 10 Places” lists written by people who’ve never been there. What readers actually want is perspective—earned through experience.

We built this platform to publish travel content that:

  • Comes from first-hand journeys

  • Balances inspiration with real-world advice

  • Respects local cultures instead of flattening them

  • Helps readers travel smarter, not just farther

That’s why our Write for Us Travel Blog initiative exists. It’s not a content farm. It’s a space for contributors who take travel seriously and storytelling personally.

Who Should Write for Us?

You don’t need to be a full-time travel blogger. Some of our best contributors are:

  • Expats sharing life between cultures

  • Frequent Gulf travellers with insider knowledge

  • Backpackers who learned things the hard way

  • Families navigating travel with kids

  • Professionals who travel for work and observe deeply

If you’ve experienced a destination beyond the airport and hotel lobby, you already have something worth saying.

What Kind of Travel Content Do We Publish

We look for articles that feel lived-in. Polished, yes—but never hollow.

Here’s what performs well on our Write for Us Travel Blog page:

Destination Guides with Depth

Not just where to go, but why, when, and how it actually feels once you’re there.

Cultural Insights

Local customs, social norms, food habits, and unspoken rules—things guidebooks often miss.

Practical Travel Advice

Visa tips, border experiences, budgeting realities, transport hacks, mistakes to avoid.

Personal Travel Stories

Moments that changed your view of a place or yourself—told honestly, without exaggeration.

Gulf-Focused Travel Content

We especially welcome content related to GCC countries, Middle East travel, expat life, and regional tourism insights.

What We Don’t Publish

To respect our readers and contributors, we avoid:

  • AI-generated or heavily templated content

  • Spun articles or rehashed posts from other blogs

  • Promotional pieces disguised as travel stories

  • Keyword-stuffed writing with no soul

If an article reads like it was written to please an algorithm instead of a human, it won’t make it through.

Why Contribute to Our Travel Blog?

There are plenty of sites offering “guest posts.” Very few offer value.

Here’s what you gain by contributing through our Write for Us Travel Blog:

  • Real exposure to an engaged travel audience

  • Author credit and a contextual backlink

  • A platform that values your voice, not just your keywords

  • Long-term visibility (we don’t delete posts after publishing)

  • A chance to build authority in the travel niche

For many contributors, one strong article here becomes a portfolio piece they’re proud to share.

Writing Guidelines (Human, Not Mechanical)

We don’t believe in rigid formulas—but we do have standards.

  • Minimum 800–1,200 words

  • Original, unpublished content only

  • Clear structure with natural flow

  • Simple, honest language (no forced fluff)

  • Facts checked, advice tested

  • Images are welcome if you own the rights

Write the way you’d explain a place to a genuinely curious friend.

How to Submit Your Article

If you’re ready to contribute, the process is straightforward:

  • Send your topic idea or draft via email

  • Briefly introduce yourself and your travel background

  • Include relevant writing samples (if available)

📧 gulftravel24@gmail.com

📧 mwtmedia2@gmail.com

Our editorial team reviews every submission carefully. If edits are needed, we’ll tell you—clearly and respectfully.

A Final Word to Future Contributors

Travel writing isn’t about sounding impressive. It’s about being observant, honest, and generous with what you’ve learned.

If you believe travel is more than ticking destinations off a list—and you want your words to help others travel better—then this Write for Us Travel Blog opportunity is meant for you.

We’re not looking for perfection. We’re looking for perspective.

And we’d genuinely love to read yours.
