- Please keep your luggage as small and light as possible. You'll be travelling on public transport where storage space is limited. You'll need to be able to lift your luggage into storage racks, walk across cobblestone streets with it and carry it up and down stairs.
- Summer temperatures can exceed 40°C in many regions, requiring sun protection, layered clothing for heat and ample hydration.
- Hotels in Europe often have single beds that can be pushed together, and air-conditioning is not guaranteed.
- If you have more time to explore the region, you may want to check out our trip 'Vienna to Dubrovnik'. Most departure dates are designed to create these perfect combos.
- There are some long walks and short hikes on this trip, so a reasonable level of fitness is recommended. Please read the day-to-day itinerary carefully to find out more details on each day's activities.
