Clara Benn

Clara owns the numbers. Every ranking here comes from one program that reads the same four inputs for all 340 tours, and Clara keeps that program and the method page that explains it: the 30/10/20/40 weights, the way a rating is pulled toward 4.5 until enough people have backed it, the price-per-hour scale, and the exchange-rate table every price goes through.

She writes the lists that cut across cities. The best night tours in the world, where a Bangkok tuk-tuk tour leads at 8.8. The best night tours for families. The best cheap night tours. She also wrote what time it gets dark, the sunset and twilight table for all 32 cities. Her rule is short: the writer explains the order, the writer never sets it. When a list looks wrong, the fix goes into the data, and every list is recomputed.

Clara is an editorial persona. The research, the sourcing and the arithmetic behind these pages are real; the privacy page explains how our bylines work.
