2. Travel information disclaimer

Gecko Routes provides travel route information, prices, schedules, and tips based on our research and personal experience. This information is subject to change. Prices shown are indicative and may differ from actual prices at the time of travel. Schedules, routes, and availability can be altered by transport operators without prior notice.

We recommend confirming details directly with transport operators or booking platforms before making travel plans. Gecko Routes is not a booking agent and cannot make reservations on your behalf.
