Since you will be joining the tour directly on the day of departure from the starting city, it is extremely important that you check your Service Summary beforehand for the exact meeting point and bus departure time. If you have any questions, please contact us before the trip begins via our emergency phone number. During your trip, your guide will likely offer optional activities. If these activities are available in the operator's app or through your "My Trip" link, we strongly recommend booking them well in advance to ensure availability. Waiting until the last minute often means missing out on the opportunity to participate due to lack of tickets, coach seats, etc. Please be on time as we travel together in a group; everyone´s cooperation is essential for a successful trip. Enjoy your tour!
