Tailoring Your Ideal Travel Experience

Choosing the right tour type can be the key to unlocking your dream vacation. We understand that every traveler has a unique taste, and that's why we offer a spectrum of touring options. Whether it's the camaraderie of a group tour, the intimacy of a small group, or the exclusivity of a private excursion, your choice sets the stage for your experiences. Let's delve into each to help you decide which path to take on your next adventure.

Shared Group tours usually consist of 20-40 people. Besides being more cost effective they can come with their quirks. With such large numbers of travelers, it's easy to feel just like another face in the crowd, or you might encounter that one traveler whose endless questions overshadow the guide's narrative.

This dynamic isn't for everyone, especially if you value personal attention or a quieter environment. Additionally, visiting hotspots during peak times can mean navigating through crowds, which can detract from the enjoyment of your tour. If you're someone who prefers a more intimate or focused exploration, a large group tour might not be your ideal choice.

Many times larger groups have to wait until the other large groups are done with their tour to move their group into the same spot to deliver their tour. Cities have become very strict on where Tour Guides can deliver their tour due to high volumes of people. 

Small group tours strike a balance between the social aspects of group travel and the attention to detail of a private tour. These tours usually range from 10-15 people, providing more room for personalized interactions with your guide and fellow travelers.

With a smaller group, you can access experiences that larger groups can't, like a cozy dinner in a local's home or a quiet moment in a hidden garden. For those seeking a more personal touch without straying from the security of a group, this is your perfect match.

Many times a visit to the Roman Colosseum, a Cruise in Santorini or a Wine Tasting in Paris are among those that may be better taken in a small group. 

For those who desire the utmost in tailored travel, private tours are the pinnacle. Whether it's a solo journey, a romantic getaway, or a family excursion, or a Suitcase Gals Trip for Women, private tours are completely customizable.

Delve deep into your interests, be it art, food, or history, at your own pace. The itinerary is yours to design with the expert advice of your Tour Guide. 

From private tours of the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, a Wine tasting, and so much more, the possibilities are endless.

When deciding between group, small group, or private tours, consider these factors:

Social Preferences: Do you enjoy making new friends on the road, or do you prefer intimate experiences with a few people or just your travel companions?


Flexibility: Are you comfortable with a set schedule, or do you wish to have the freedom to alter plans as you go?


Budget: Group tours often offer more for your money, while private tours are a premium service with a higher price tag.


Access: Smaller groups often enjoy accessto more exclusive activities and venues that can't accommodate larger crowds.

Expertise: All tour types come with knowledgeable guides, but private and small group tours offer more opportunities for in-depth learning.

In the end, the choice depends on your travel desires. Your Travel Advisor can help you better understand the tours and provide you the why on what is best for your trip.
