Activity type
Outdoor activities beyond hard hikes: gardens, park walks, open-air bike loops and plaza-based experiences for good-weather days.
Outdoor here means open-air plans that are not necessarily mountaineering. Parks, gardens, coastal bikes and plaza walks — the days you want sun on your face without a 14km trail rating.
For serious hiking and volcano days, use Outdoors & hiking. For boats, use Water & boats.

Outdoor is parks, gardens and easy open-air plans. Outdoors & hiking is trails, elevation and fitness-first days.
Often no. Book a guide when the garden has layered history (Boboli, Kirstenbosch context walks) or when transport to the site is awkward.
Shoulder seasons — spring and autumn — beat midsummer heat and midwinter closures in most of Europe and Japan.
