If you plan on going out and about to explore during meal times, start off with a good breakfast at your hotel. It’s a great way to save money as then you’ll only need a snack during the day before you return for a nice (and paid for) dinner.

While most your activities on site will be covered, if you want to explore away from your hotel you’ll have to pay extra. Ask at your hotel for a local transportation schedule – it will be much cheaper than taking a taxi or private tour.
