Affiliate Disclosure

How this site is funded, in plain language.

In short: if you book a tour or a hotel through a link on this site, we may earn a commission. You pay exactly the same price. Nobody pays us for a good review, and nothing on this site is a paid placement.

Who we work with

GetYourGuide. Every tour and ticket on SouthPlains.com is booked through GetYourGuide, and we are a registered affiliate partner. When you book after clicking one of our links, GetYourGuide pays us a share of their commission. Your price is unchanged.

Trip.com. Accommodation links on our where to stay page go to Trip.com. Where an affiliate relationship is in place, we may earn a commission on completed stays, again at no additional cost to you.

What this does and does not change

  • It does not change your price. Affiliate commission comes out of the platform’s margin, not your booking.
  • It does not buy a ranking. No operator or hotel can pay to appear on this site or to be ranked higher on it.
  • It does not make us invent products. Where there is nothing good to book — as in Lubbock itself today — we say so.
  • It does fund the site. Research, hosting and keeping information current are paid for entirely by these commissions. There is no advertising.

How we choose what to recommend

Tours are ranked on how well they fit a South Plains itinerary, the quality of the experience, value for money and what reviewers say afterwards. Ratings and review counts are taken directly from GetYourGuide and re-checked regularly. Accommodation is selected on location, guest feedback and value, using data from Trip.com.

Prices and accuracy

All prices shown on this site are indicative starting prices and can change at any time. The price you see on the booking platform at the moment of purchase is the one that applies.
