FAQ
Common questions
The practical details people usually want to confirm before they book.
Can tea picker day be combined with the rest of our day?
Usually yes. We confirm the best time slot around your hotel area, transfer direction, and how much energy you want to spend on the day.
Do you confirm timing before we book?
Yes. We look at your route first, then tell you what fits comfortably before you commit.
Is this private?
Your transport and timing support are private. If the activity itself uses a local host or operator, we confirm whether that part is private or shared before you decide.
Can you add a nearby stop before or after?
Often yes. Short scenic, food, or sightseeing stops can be added when they still keep the day comfortable.
