Can I book this tour with dietary restrictions?

Yes. Inform the supplier of vegetarian, vegan, or allergy requirements when booking, and they will adapt food stops accordingly.

Is this tour private or group?

It is a private tour, meaning your group books exclusively. The guide tailors the pace, stops, and content to your preferences.
