Common Questions
Frequently asked questions
Is 5 people per boat the minimum?
No, we can accommodate groups of 4 in each boat. We’ve successfully done this with other groups.
Is 15 people the maximum group size?
Not necessarily! While we recommend 15 for a smoother experience, especially with boat transfers, we’ve hosted groups up to 27 people. Larger groups are possible with a few adjustments.
Can we choose fewer kilometers but still have a 6-day tour?
Yes! Our tours are fully customizable. We can arrange additional activities or simply allow more time for relaxation.
Can we cover the same distance but extend the number of days?
Absolutely! We’re happy to customize your itinerary with additional activities or leisure time to suit your preferences.
I have food restrictions. Is the tour still possible?
Of course! We take food restrictions very seriously and will ensure all your dietary needs are met both at restaurants and during our picnics. Just let us know in advance, and we’ll handle the rest.
What type of accommodations are included?
Our tour includes stays in hotels or similar accommodations, with double or twin rooms for two people. If you prefer a private room, single rooms are available for an additional fee.
