Let conditions decide the route

Use an established local operator and suitable vehicle. Ask which areas are accessible, how the day is paced and what happens if weather changes the plan.

Stay with the landscape

Leave salt formations and fragile island environments undisturbed. Check whether meals, fees, water and any overnight stays are included.

Give the day room to unfold

Agree the full route, vehicle arrangements, emergency provision and return time. Longer southwestern circuits need separate planning.
