Blackbook Traveler is a unique global website, sharing user generated information relating to travel safety, security and health.

It is built from a belief that as a traveling community we should look out for, and protect, each other. By sharing our stories and messages, we have the ability to warn and potentially save the lives of other travelers.

Blackbook Traveler is not about breeding fear into our dream of travel. It is about being informed, empowered and armed with knowledge. It is planning for a safer trip, increasing our awareness of existing travel security, safety and health issues via travelers on the go and being better prepared if something does go wrong.

Already there exists a grapevine of information between travelers as they cross paths. Blackbook Traveler has taken this online, giving all travelers the opportunity to report and access 'traveler to traveler' safety information in one location. With our travel forum, we provide a place to further those conversations.

Report Travel Safety, Security and Health Issues

When you become a member of the Blackbook Traveler community, you have access to anonymously post safety, security or health issues you've experienced while traveling for any location. It doesn't matter how minor you may perceive an issue to be, if it is something that bothers you and makes you feel uncomfortable, there is a good chance other travelers would feel the same and appreciate the 'heads up'. Sometimes we have no idea if these are recurring issues targeting or being faced by travelers on a regualr basis or if they have the potential to become more serious in nature over time. 

Receive Free 'Traveler to Traveler' Alerts for any Location

As a member of Blackbook Traveler you also have the option of choosing to receive free email travel alerts for any town or country in the world, for new incidents logged by members through our website. You can easily manage your profile to stop or alter these alerts by location, type or frequency at any time.

'Missing Pages'

Blackbook Traveler is the founder of 'Missing Pages' which profiles travelers who have gone missing or deceased while traveling. These profiles are incorporated into the search and map functions of the website, to help create awareness for travelers still missing and awarenesss for dangers faced by all travelers. Profiles allow for family, friends and the travel community to add tributes to these travelers. Connected to these profiles are additional features, including a 'press one button' professionally created missing persons poster, which can be downloaded or emailed in many languages.

Blackbook Traveler is the only known organisation in the world to run targeted International facebook campaigns for missing travelers. To date we have undertaken international campaigns for missing travelers from Australia, Britain, Slovakia, Hungary, Findland, Germany, U.S.A, Spain, Ireland and Malaysia targeting the countries of Canada, Nepal, Austria, Cambodia, U.S.A, France, and Australia. Some of these campaigns have reached over 300,000 people in three days, in the location where the traveler has disappeared, with locals distributing posters and providing helpful feedback.

And for every travel warning message you share here with the Blackbook Traveler community, we will donate $1.00 towards the 'Missing Pages' targeted social media campaigns for missing travelers.
