Practical advice
- Free cancellation on all of these, so it's safe to book now and adjust your plans later.
- A few of these tend to sell out fast, so if your dates are set, it's worth booking a few days ahead.
- Plan for anywhere from 1.5 hr to 4 hr, depending which one you pick, and factor that into the rest of your day.
