Good to know
This suits anyone wanting flexibility over a fixed itinerary—you're not locked into a scripted route. Families with prams, infants, and people of any fitness level are welcome. The 12–16 hour span means early starts and long days in the car; check exact pickup times beforehand. Weather can shift, so sun protection and layers help. Dinner is not included, so plan accordingly. Group size stays small (exact numbers not specified), which reduces crowds but may mean higher per-person cost than large-group alternatives.
