Small Group Tours

What are small group tours?

Small group tours are scheduled departures that have a limited number of places available on them. You can just book your place and join the group; it is as simple as that! The tours are open to anyone, anywhere in the world to book a place on. A local, English-speaking guide leads the tour and the group follows a set itinerary.

We do not offer group tours in all our destinations. However, if you are looking for an explorer holiday, then many of our tailor-made tours can be as cost-effective as travelling in a group!

At Our Local Tour when we talk about our ‘small’ group tours, we mean it. Our largest group size is 16 people. This means that, when you travel, you won't be lost in a coachload of people. You'll get the personal attention you deserve. Some tour operators claim to have 'small groups.' But, their tours can have up to 25 or more people. That is three times the average on one of our tours.

With fewer travellers in our groups, you'll spend less time checking in to hotels and getting on and off transport. You'll have more time to see the sights.

Who travels on a Small Group Tour?

Our Local Tour group trips are perfect for solo travellers. They reassure solo travellers by providing a small group to travel with. Our small group tours are equally suited to couples, friends, and families. They range from classical holidays to safaris and are suitable for anyone with adventure in their heart! Small group sizes help to create a sense of camaraderie and allow for closer connections to the places and people you visit.

Join our small group tour. You'll share the journey with like-minded travelers and a local, knowledgeable guide.

We do not have an upper age limit but ask that all travellers on our group tours are over 18 years old. If you are a family with younger children then we can happily arrange a private tour for you, with the flexibility that we know families require.

Travelling Solo. Travelling Together.

Solo travellers are welcome on all our small group tours. The maths means that there is always a small supplement to pay when travelling on your own. The cost of a room divided by two is always less than when divided by one!

To try and mitigate any unnecessary costs, if you are happy to share and we have another same sex traveller wishing to share, we will pair you up with a roommate to ensure you get the same price.

Of course, if you would prefer your own room while on tour, that is fine. We have agreed with our local partners to offer all single rooms at cost, so the single supplement is as low as it can be.
