“What is a Private Tour?”
Private tours are premium travel experiences, led by local English-speaking guides who are following a carefully crafted trip itinerary. But unlike other tours, if you want to customize one of our tours’ itinerary, you can easily create YOUR own travel plans that are “tailor-made” to meet your wants and desires.
Our tours are NOT like a big group tour: they do not leave on specific dates or travel on preset timelines. Rather, you tell us when you want to go, how long you want to stay and whether you have any specific requirements or travel requests.
“Are private tours really worth it?”
Our private tours are led by English-speaking guides who will provide you with expert insights into the local arts, history, and culture. You can see everything you want and discover things tailored to your individual interests. On any of our private tours (even with a small group), everyone will have the time and opportunity to ask as many questions as they want. This way, you will return home with a deeper understanding of the people and places you visit. Not to mention some stunning photos and lifelong memories!
Jeanine S. (our first solo woman traveler) wrote during her tour…
“Hi Steve, I am having the time of my life! Here are just a few of the hundreds of pictures taken with the wonderful … people who approached me. My favorite thing about this country is not the heritage sites, but rather the people.”

Travel the world with liked-minded people
- Luxury for Less: our small group tours are more affordable because we avoid the high overhead costs associated with large group logistics.
- Stronger Connections: Travelers in small groups often bond more easily, fostering a sense of camaraderie and creating lasting friendships.
- Personalized Experiences: Smaller groups allow for more individual attention from guides and local vendors, leading to a more tailored and enriched travel experience.
- Enhanced Learning: With fewer people, guides can offer more detailed information and engage in deeper discussions, enhancing the educational aspect of the trip.
- Access to More Locations: Small groups can access places that larger groups can’t, such as boutique luxury hotels, more intimate dining arrangements, and travel to hidden gems off the beaten path.
