Here's an easy guide to pre-booking optional excursions that will elevate your vacation experience.
Many tour operators provide the flexibility to book optional add-ons in advance, while some may require you to arrange these extras locally during the tour.
How to book optional excursions:
-
Check during booking: Some operators feature additional services on the booking page, allowing you to easily add them to your booking.
-
After booking details: If no add-on options appear during the booking process, don't worry. Details about optional extras and their prices are often included in the trip notes you’ll receive after booking.
-
Inquire before booking: Use the 'Ask a Question' button on the tour page to inquire about available activities and their costs. If you and the operator agree on the activities and prices, they can be added to your booking.
-
Confirm your add-ons: From the Booking Conversation Page, confirm your booking including any agreed-upon extras by clicking the 'Book Now' button. This ensures a customized reservation tailored to your interests.
