We perform checks on reviews

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Sligo's rich history

Oct 2021

I organised the Dark Tales Walking Tour with a work group, all of us from Sligo. Mel was great and we all agreed that we didn't know Sligo had such a rich interesting history.

Our group of 20 had a fabulous time on the Dark Tales walking tour with the delightful Melissa. A really insightful tour of the history of Sligo and it's association with Bram Stoker.
