Good to know.
How is package pricing calculated?
Rates start from $85 per person based on double occupancy. Single room/cabin supplements ($123) and triple room savings ($81 per person) apply. Final quotes reflect verified hotel and vessel availability.
Are monument entrance tickets and meals included automatically?
The published itinerary describes the route and sightseeing sequence rather than a fixed ticket bundle. Your personal quotation clearly itemizes which entrance fees, local boat crossings, meals, and transport segments are included so there are no surprises on the day.
Can pickup times and pacing be adjusted for our group?
Yes. Because ground touring and transfers are arranged privately for your party, start times, rest stops, and time spent at individual landmarks can be adapted around your hotel location, flight or port schedule, and walking pace.
Where will we be picked up?
The airport, station, or hotel pickup point stated in your confirmed itinerary. Your exact meeting details are agreed before travel.
How is my booking confirmed?
Send an enquiry first. We review availability and provide a written quotation with the itinerary, services, price and booking conditions. Sending the form does not reserve a service.
