Lovely trip but beware hidden costs. Extra to book direct flights & on dates chosen +$200 pp. Extra for automatic car & extra driver $210. Extra for hotel parking $20. Delta charged $75 per checked bag each way. Overall great hotels, car rental went smoothly. Booked on off season in Oct- rainy but less people. Loved the freedom of getting to choose our itinerary every day.
