Next, it is recommended to contact a specialized local travel agency, capable of advising you and designing a personalized itinerary adapted to your preferences and pace. Once the program and quotation are validated, the booking is usually confirmed through a written contract and a deposit payment, ensuring the reservation of services (accommodation, transport, activities, guide).
