How to Book Your Trip?

Booking a trip is an essential step that deserves careful thought, organization, and support. The first step is to clearly define your expectations — destination, duration, budget, departure period, and preferred travel style (cultural, seaside, adventure, tailor-made, etc.).
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).
