Choose a manageable heritage outing
- Check the boat connection and return arrangement before adding a visit to your arrival day.
- Discuss walking surfaces, shade and rest needs if children or older travellers are coming.
- Keep show tickets and other optional arrangements separate from a general island visit.
- Leave wildlife undisturbed and follow the site's access instructions rather than treating every area as open.
Compare trip routes and explore optional experiences before choosing your final plan.
