Fine, but the food was repetitive✫ 3
No complaints about safety or logistics, and the stay was decent. Three meals of the same menu got old though, and one viewpoint was skipped because we ran late.
Yes — most people on our departures book solo. You'll be added to the group WhatsApp three days before departure, and the trip captain handles introductions on the bus.
Departures are capped, and the exact number is on the booking page. Anything above 20 runs with two captains.
Refunds follow the cancellation policy shown on the departure — 90% up to 15 days before, 50% up to 7 days, nothing inside 72 hours.
