FAQ

Should I book in advance?

For popular summer dates and limited-capacity experiences, advance booking gives you more choice. Outside peak periods, availability is often more flexible.

Are day trips suitable for a short stay?

Yes, but choose one route that adds something different to your main destination rather than spending most of a short trip in transit.
