Suggested itinerary · Adapt the order to your dates and confirmed transport.
Opening
Use the first days to test connectivity, desk and meeting time zones.
Weekdays
Plan one short optional outing, not a tour conflicting with calls.
Weekends
Choose one outing with a clear return; keep the evening before work free.
Adapt the itinerary
This is an editorial allocation of time, not a booked tour or operator timetable. Count arrival and departure separately from full sightseeing days. Verify transport connections before paying; respond to warnings and closures by changing the programme rather than bypassing restrictions.
