Confirm before booking
Ask for the departure-specific price, group size, porter ratio, hotel category, meals, staff insurance, cancellation terms and the exact treatment of road or weather delays. The written quotation—not a summary card—should control the booking.
Private and group departures
Private departures provide more pacing and date control. Group departures can reduce shared costs but require compatible dates, fitness and route decisions.

Is flexibility necessary?
Yes. Keep a buffer for weather, health and road disruption rather than forcing a fixed schedule.
