- Confirm attraction opening days, reservation requirements and hotel availability for your dates.
- Check entry and visa requirements with official authorities for your passport and complete route. Allow for arrival and departure timing when choosing trip length.
- Adjust the pace, accessibility needs and number of nights to fit your group; an extra night can make a late arrival or early departure easier.
