  3. Confirm opening hours before leaving, especially for venues with limited weekday schedules or no clearly published access information.
  4. Ask whether advance booking is required and whether the session is guided, open access or reserved for a specific number of guests.
  5. If you are combining sauna with courses or training, check the timetable and reservation window before planning the rest of your visit.
  6. For a first visit, confirm what is included, what you need to bring and whether the experience is a conventional sauna or an alternative such as flotation.
