Travel isn’t just about the stunning places you visit; it’s equally about the people you meet along the way. That’s where small group tours shine, striking the right balance between shared experiences and personal adventures. At Our Local Tour, we’re passionate about connecting travellers with genuine, impactful experiences. Our thoughtfully crafted small group tours take you to some of the most fascinating and diverse destinations around the globe. From our exciting new trips in Oman, Bangladesh, and Albania to unforgettable journeys through West Africa, Uganda, and Botswana, there’s something waiting to be explored for every kind of traveller.
Why Opt for Small Group Tours?
Small group travel is not just about fewer faces in the crowd, it’s about building connections. With groups averaging 8 to 12 people, you’ll enjoy all the perks of organised travel—like knowledgeable guides and hassle-free logistics—while retaining the freedom and depth of independent exploration. These smaller groups grant you access to unique experiences, such as visiting a local artisan in Ghana or trekking the hidden trails in Albania that larger tours often overlook.
Plus, travelling in a smaller group lowers your environmental and cultural footprint, which ties perfectly with sustainable travel principles. Our Local Tour is committed to making a positive impact, whether that’s through supporting community-based tourism initiatives or following eco-friendly practices in places like Botswana’s wildlife reserves.
Exciting New Destinations: Oman, Bangladesh, and Albania
Our newly launched tours in Oman, Bangladesh, and Albania reflect our dedication to providing fresh and unique travel experiences.
Oman is a land of contrasts, brimming with dramatic deserts, lush oases, and vibrant historical cities. Picture yourself watching the sun dip below the dunes of Wahiba Sands or exploring ancient forts and bustling souks in Nizwa. Oman’s commitment to preserving its rich heritage and stunning natural beauty makes for an experience that feels both authentic and untouched.
Bangladesh is the perfect destination for any adventure traveller. Our tours take you beyond the chaotic streets of Dhaka to the serene Sundarbans mangrove forests, home to the elusive Bengal tiger, or the tranquil tea estates of Srimangal. Engaging with local communities, such as witnessing the vibrant tribal cultures in the Chittagong Hill Tracts, enriches your journey and offers a glimpse into Bangladeshi life.
Albania, tucked away in the Balkans, offers a delightful mix of history, culture, and natural wonder. From the ancient ruins of Butrint to the stunning Albanian Riviera, our tours showcase the country’s intriguing past and gorgeous landscapes. Add in the warmth of the locals and their mouthwatering cuisine, and you have a destination that delights at every turn.
Adventures in West Africa
For those in search of vibrant cultures and rich traditions, West Africa is a treasure trove. Our group tours in Ghana, Benin, and Togo delve into the region’s deep cultural heritage, featuring visits to Ashanti communities, voodoo festivals, and sites that speak to the poignant history of the slave trade. A journey through West Africa offers not just an exploration of the land but an immersive voyage through time, highlighting the enduring resilience of its people.
Wildlife Wonders in Uganda and Botswana
Nature lovers will find plenty to admire in Uganda and Botswana, where our small-group wildlife adventures reach new heights. Encountering the magnificent mountain gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is a life-changing experience you won’t forget. Safaris in Queen Elizabeth National Park reveal elephants, lions, and the rare tree-climbing lions, while a visit to the source of the Nile intertwines nature with history.
Botswana’s pristine Okavango Delta and Chobe National Park showcase African wildlife in all its glory. Smaller groups mean quieter, more intimate wildlife viewing, whether meandering through the delta’s waterways or watching herds of elephants at Chobe. Botswana’s dedication to low-impact tourism ensures that these incredible experiences remain sustainable, preserving the region’s stunning landscapes for future generations.
The Heart of Our Local Tour
What sets Our Local Tour apart is our commitment to crafting experiences that truly resonate. We go beyond just ticking off major sights; our itineraries are designed for deeper exploration. In Uganda, you might engage with local conservation teams to learn about gorilla preservation. In West Africa, you could participate in community festivals or take part in traditional textile weaving workshops.
