Travel tips

  • Carry some cash for small villages, markets and taxis; cards work in most hotels and city restaurants.
  • Check museum and archaeological-site opening days before travelling; some close one day a week.
  • Book hot-air balloons, popular restaurants and summer ferries in advance, especially in high season.
