An individual estimate needs a defined plan and provider review. Ask for a written breakdown rather than comparing package names alone.
Confirm what is included, quotation validity, possible additional charges, and cancellation terms. Allow separately for accommodation, travel, local transfers, coordination fees, and care after returning home.
