Common questions

How private is it?
Your guide and transfers are exclusively yours. The only shared elements are the trains and the site itself, which everyone shares.
Can we change the plan as we go?
Within reason, yes. A private trip has more flexibility on daily timing than a fixed group departure.
Can you go higher on hotels?
Yes, hotel tier is a main price lever. We will quote the level you want.
