Questions

Is the price listed?

No. We quote each tour for your date, group and departure place, so you see exactly what it covers.

What is the private car, and what is separate?

The private car with driver is the base of every plan. Boat tickets, rafting, guides, entrance fees and lifts are separate activities, and we confirm them with you in the quote.

Can I change the stops?

Yes. The itinerary is a sample; tell us what you want to see more or less of.

Is this suitable for children?

Many tours are. Tell us the ages and we will advise on walking, water and child seats.

What happens if the weather turns?

We suggest a sensible alternative or another date. Boat and mountain activities are the most weather-dependent.
