All our customers receive an online map with indications of points of interest, and with location of hotels, train stations, airports, and car rental agencies that will be used throughout the trip. In this article we explain how to get the best out of these maps step by step.
1.- Open the map from your Google account
When confirming your trip we will ask you to provide us with a Google account. Once all the details of accommodation, itinerary, means of transport, etc are closed, we will take care of creating an online map with all this information. Once created, we will send an invitation to you by email. Although the map can be opened with your mobile, everything will be much easier if you open it from your computer the first time.
1.1.- From the email that we have sent you with the invitation, click on the link to open the map
