How to pick a good private tour

  1. Write down what you most want to see before you book, and share it with the guide.
  2. Check whether entry tickets and transport are included in the price or paid on the day.
  3. Licensed guides can enter some sites with you and skip queues; others must wait outside.
  4. A half-day private tour is often enough for the main sights, with the afternoon left free.
