About citytldr

citytldr is a minimalist arrival guide for travelers. Think of it as a man page for cities.

Every city page answers one question: "I just landed. Now what?"

What you'll find

Six sections, same structure, every city: airport-to-city transfers, public transport, essential apps, payments, connectivity (SIM/eSIM), and survival tips. Scannable in under 2 minutes on your phone while waiting for luggage.

What you won't find

No hotel recommendations. No restaurant reviews. No "Top 10" listicles. No display ads. No cookie consent walls. No tracking. We don't tell you where to eat or sleep — we tell you how to get from the airport to wherever you're going.

How we verify data

Every data point is sourced from official transit authorities, airport websites, and first-hand experience. Each section shows when it was last verified and links to its source. If we're unsure about something, we say so.

Monetization

We include affiliate links for genuinely useful tools such as Nomad eSIM and travel-relevant financial products. These are clearly marked and only appear where they solve a real arrival problem. We will never run display ads or let monetization dictate content.
