Practical transport planning notes

  • In summer, pre-book airport transfers and late-evening taxis.
  • For island beaches, verify last boat/ferry return time before departure.
  • Keep one backup route (taxi or train) in case of schedule changes.
  • On weekends and holidays, check timetables again on the same day.
