Many sisters are struggling over whether to join a tour group or travel on their own, but there is actually a more flexible option, which is to charter a car for a customized tour. Joining a tour group is too rushed, while traveling on your own makes you afraid of being unfamiliar with the roads and being tired of driving. With a chartered car for a customized tour, you don’t have to rush. You can stop whenever you want and take pictures whenever you want. Professional drivers will take you to all the niche attractions, and will help you with accommodation and routes. For example, with the route above, chartering a car will give you more freedom, and you can adjust the itinerary at any time according to the weather and physical strength.
