FAQs
What if I'm coming solo?
Most of our travelers do! We'll take care of matching you with an awesome roommate (unless you opt to upgrade to a single room!)
Can you accommodate dietary restrictions and food allergies?
Absolutely! This is one of our specialities - gluten free, vegan, pescatarian - just let us know and we've got you covered!
How much money should I bring, and can I use my credit card?
This is very dependent on your personal spending habits - a great lunch can cost as little as $10, but you'll also have opportunities to go out at night for drinks, take advantage of spa services, and do plenty of souvenir shopping, so we recommend a minimum of $300 USD. Visa and MasterCard are fairly widely accepted, but we recommend visiting the ATM upon arrival to withdraw a bit of cash for smaller shops!
