Turn-by-turn directions

These maps and routes are designed to be used in conjunction with our traditional turn-by-turn route notes. We are have recently embarked on a conversion initiative to bring the two elements together, and this itinerary will be covered in due course.

In the meantime, using the two elements alongside each other should go a long way to ensure you have a safe, enjoyable and problem free day.

Please also note that the image used on this route is a generic one for the entire tour, and the scene may not necessarily feature in this day’s activity. We will be adding additional images relevant to the specific day in the near future.
