    Are these activities required or can we go out on our own as long as we are back at a certain time?

      The activities are part of the price you pay for the package. If you do not participate in them, there would not be a refund offered for the missed experiences. Depending on what you would like to do, it would be possible for you to venture on your own, but you would be fully responsible for meeting up with the group in the next destination.
