=== DAILY STRUCTURE ===

=== RULES ===
- Name SPECIFIC venues with brief one-line descriptions
- Balance hits (must-see tourist stops) with local/hidden gems (2 per day minimum)
- Realistic transit between venues — no 10-min sprint across a city
- Group activities by neighborhood to minimize back-and-forth
- Adjust pace to the stated preference (don't pack 8 activities into a relaxed day)
- Respect the budget — flag when a choice pushes the budget
- Include a "backup plan" for 1-2 days in case of rain/closures
- Factor in jet lag for day 1 (lighter schedule if arrival is late)
- Last day: buffer time for return transit, NOT the day to hit the biggest attraction

| Day | Meals | Transit | Activities | Total |
**2. Pre-Trip Bookings Required**
