Each level remains a complete package. Only the accommodation standard, vehicle level, meal plan and experience detail change.

Heritage planning: Heritage-site entrance tickets and specialist site guides are confirmed separately unless the final quotation specifically includes them. This keeps the advertised hotel + private chauffeur starting price clear and lets guests choose the exact ticket/guide bundle they want.
