How to compare tours and activities

  • Reviews attach to each activity, so read the latest ones for the exact tour you are choosing.
  • If the listing sets age or health conditions, they apply at the meeting point, so read them first.
  • For outdoor activities, find the operator's bad-weather rule on the listing.
  • See whether the ticket is mobile or must be printed, and whether a set entry time applies.
  • Entry-only tickets and guided visits are sold side by side; make sure you are comparing the same thing.
  • Read what the price includes: entry fees, transport, meals and equipment are listed separately on most platforms.
  • See where the activity starts and whether pickup reaches the area you are staying in.
  • Each listing carries its own cancellation cut-off; read it before you pay.
  • Make sure the tour's length and language suit you; both are stated on the listing.

Before you book

  • Take screenshots of the offer and terms at the time of booking.
  • Prices on provider sites change with dates and demand, so compare on the same day for the same dates.
  • Whatever a summary says, the conditions at checkout govern your booking.
  • The amount on your statement depends on the charge currency and your card's fees.
  • Save your confirmation offline, since you may need it without data.
