What to Expect
You should be in good overall health and able to walk up to three miles over the course of a day and stand for periods of time in museums and at historic sites, often in the heat of the day. There will be several days with early departures and sometimes the touring will be scheduled for the entire day, without an opportunity to return to the hotel until early evening. You will stay in six hotels over the course of 13 nights with frequent transfers between cities (two internal flights and a few long drives by motor coach).
