How to structure your days

1. Arrival: settle in and choose an area near your base rather than a full day after a long journey.
2. Full day: group nearby stops, check actual road travel and leave a midday break.
3. Transfer or departure: reserve travel time and a backup; do not count it as a full sightseeing day.
