What Does ‘Guide Price’ Mean?
We understand that pricing is a key factor when choosing your holiday. The guide prices we provide are based on Marina’s personal criteria for comfort, convenience, and a great overall experience. This typically means:
✔ Daytime weekend flights (where possible) with a reputable Middle Eastern airline and no more than one connection
✔ Half-board accommodation in a four star hotel for a stress-free stay
✔ Private transfers for a seamless travel experience
However, there may be more budget-friendly options available, such as:
🔹 Night-time or midweek flights, which can be cheaper than weekend daytime departures
🔹 Opting for room-only or bed & breakfast instead of half board, or even a hotel with less stars
🔹 Alternative airlines or routes that might work better for your budget
If you love the itinerary but need to adjust the price, let’s talk! We are happy to explore alternative options to tailor the holiday to your budget while maintaining an amazing experience.
