In our shared services, we will pick up our clients from their hotel as long as it is in the city center.

In our shared services, at the end of the tour, we leave our clients in a place close to the Main Square, it is easier to return to your hotel on foot than to go by bus, since the traffic is terrible. If your hotel is far from the city center, bring extra cash to take a taxi.
