During peak travel season or special circumstances, the tour departure time may be earlier or slightly later than what is listed on the itinerary (the actual departure time will be decided by the service staff). Please be prepared in advance.
For this activity, your service staff may need to adjust your itinerary depending on weather, traffic conditions, or other factors. This could mean visiting attractions in a slightly different order or assembling at a different time to enter an attraction. The service staff will always ask your permission before doing this and you won’t end up with fewer attractions in your itinerary.
