Choose one main reason to go
Start with a city, heritage, food or a coastal stay. Then choose a base that supports that interest. Our regional groupings are editorial travel areas, not official boundaries.
Give the route room
Use three to five days for a focused stay; use longer trips to add a second chapter with its transfer visible. These are planning suggestions, not minimum stay requirements.
Verify before booking
Read the sources beside important claims. Fees, access and schedules are omitted unless checked. Use the practical guide to separate inspiration from the decisions requiring current official information.
