The decision that changes this stage
Compare the interest of this urban stage with the time required for connections from your other bases. Ask for transport, accommodation and actual time on site before booking. An island trip does not automatically win to add an island if each trip takes off a day of discovery.
Three points to confirm before booking
- Connections actually available on selected dates
- Confirmed hosting for the stage
- Time after each transfer
