BEFORE YOU BOOK
The prettiest itinerary still needs breathing room, a realistic transport budget, and a plan for arriving well.
A daylight arrival and an unscheduled first evening make an unfamiliar place feel gentler.
Airport transfers, ferries, baggage, tips, and local transport can matter more than admission.
Reserve timed entries, island beds, scenic trains, and small-group tours before flexible extras.
Check local dress, customs, weather, entry rules, and opening days—not just the photo spots.
