These prompts create opportunities for both quick interactions and deeper discussions. Members may simply vote or comment, or they may share stories and sources that support their answers.

To use these templates, simply copy and paste a template into your community post or story. Encourage members to comment their guesses, vote in polls, or share their reasoning. After a set time, reveal the answer and highlight interesting responses or related facts. Mix up your approach by using images, polls, or live chat sessions to keep things fresh and interactive.
For all platforms, use clear, concise statements and easy engagement methods like polls, comments, or reactions. Adapt your post format to fit the platform's strengths, such as using Stories on Instagram or Polls on Facebook. Always follow up with the answer and invite further discussion to maximize value on any channel.
Fact or Fiction posts are a great way to clarify common misunderstandings about topics like travel insurance exclusions, visa-on-arrival myths, or health documentation requirements. Use real-world scenarios (e.g., 'Fact or Fiction: You don’t need travel insurance for domestic trips') and follow up with authoritative resources or examples, which helps travelers make informed decisions and boosts engagement through myth-busting.
Leverage local legends, customs, and recent travel regulations for various destinations in your Fact or Fiction content. For example, ask members to guess whether certain attractions are closed for renovations, or if wildlife encounters are as common as rumored. This not only sparks conversation from those who’ve been to the destination but also provides up-to-date information for trip planning.
Frame these topics with sensitivity and encourage respectful discussion. For instance, pose a statement like 'Fact or Fiction: It’s disrespectful to wear swimwear away from beaches in Barcelona.' After votes, provide context from official tourism boards or local perspectives. This educates while fostering awareness around responsible travel and cultural sensitivity.
Absolutely! Fact or Fiction is ideal for tackling frequent questions about baggage fees, airport security rules, or seat selection policies. Tailor questions to both frequent flyers and infrequent travelers, then share official airline policies or insider tips, which helps members avoid unpleasant surprises and enhances your group’s credibility.
Present statements like 'Fact or Fiction: Staying in eco-lodges always guarantees a lower carbon footprint.' Use the post to educate members about green certifications, the impact of different accommodation choices, or the realities of carbon offsets. This not only encourages discussion but also positions your community as an advocate for responsible travel.
Create Fact or Fiction prompts tailored to those niches, like 'Fact or Fiction: The Inca Trail trek requires booking at least six months in advance' or 'Fact or Fiction: Tokyo street food is limited to fish-based dishes.' Tag or invite members who’ve mentioned these interests to share their expertise, fostering a sense of recognition and encouraging more in-depth discussion.
