How do you work out whether a stop is in daylight?
For each stop we calculate the sun's height above the horizon every 5 minutes of the visit, at that stop's own location and on your date. "In daylight" means the sun is up for the whole visit; twilight means the sun has set but the sky is still light. Mountains and cloud make it darker earlier than the calculation shows.
Sunrise and sunset are calculated for each stop's coordinates and are accurate to about 2 minutes. Arrival times are typical for these tours as listed in 2026; traffic, weather and the operator's own timetable decide the real ones. Times are local (Europe/London).
