Benefits of a Private Tour

Exclusive & meaningful

Your personal Tour Director is there for you (and only you) to bring your destination to life with local expertise and anecdotes that will help you create a deeply memorable experience—together.

Curated, pre-planned itineraries

Each of our 200+ itineraries are handpicked and organized by our in-house team of travel professionals. You worry about the photo ops, we worry about everything else.

Built-in flexibility

Choose the unique departure date, group size, and room configuration that work for you, and keep the fun going—and going—with pre-planned optional excursions and trip extensions.

Big group? Bigger rewards!

Keep it small with as few as 10 friends or expand your guest list. The more people you bring, the more rewards and savings you unlock to share with your group (or enjoy for yourself—you’ve earned it).

Our free (and pretty awesome) mobile app

This isn’t your average travel app: Besides checking your itinerary, you can preview the hotels you’ll stay at; chat with your group; touch base with and get to know your Tour Director; and share all the sensational photos you’ll take while on tour. And those are just a few of its handy features.

Quote by 2nd-time traveler Barb
It is important to me to know each individual personally, control the group size, and provide fun, safe, educational experiences to expand their horizons. Private Tours provide this.
