HOW WE WORK OUT OUR PRICES
The guide price shown is designed to give you a ballpark estimate of the costs involved to travel to this destination for the number of days shown. It’s based on travel with EVA Air internationally, staying in some of our favourite superior/four star hotels. If you have a bigger budget, the cost based on staying in deluxe/five star hotels is around £2625 per person. If you’re planning to travel with friends or family, the cost would come down the more people you have in your party, as would swapping the hotels for ‘standard’ class properties.
