Small Group Adventures & Escorted Touring in Europe

The Perfect Blend of Independence and Ease

Love the idea of an adventure but don’t want to stress over every little detail? A Small Group Tour or Escorted Tour gives you the best of both worlds. With expert local guides handling logistics and a group of like-minded travellers to share the journey, all you need to do is pack your bag, grab your passport, and bring your sense of adventure.

Unlike big coach tours, these trips are designed to be immersive and personal, with small groups of just 8–16 people. That means more authentic experiences, a lighter footprint on the places you visit, and a close-knit atmosphere where you can connect with fellow travellers from all walks of life.

Traveling solo? You’re not alone! More than half of all travellers on Small Group and Escorted Tours go solo, making it a perfect way to explore without feeling like you’re on your own.

Why Choose a Small Group or Escorted Tour?

✅ Stress-Free Travel – No need to plan routes, book hotels, or figure out transport. Your expert tour leader takes care of it all—so you can just enjoy the journey.

✅ Authentic Local Experiences – Smaller groups can access places that big tours simply can’t. Think family-run restaurants, boutique wineries, and hidden hiking trails.

✅ Like-Minded Travelers – Join a group of people who share your passion for adventure, whether that’s food, culture, history, or the great outdoors.

✅ Sustainable & Responsible Travel – Smaller groups mean less impact on local communities. I also work with ethical tour operators who give back to the places we visit.

✅ The Ease of Escorted Touring – Enjoy all the perks of having a knowledgeable guide who ensures a smooth and enriching travel experience, without the rigid schedules of large group tours.

Why Book With Me?

With 30+ years of adventure travel experience, I work with the best tour operators to craft unforgettable trips that fit your style and budget. Unlike a traditional tour company, I’m independent—so I search the whole market to find the perfect match for you, whether that’s a classic itinerary, an off-the-beaten-path adventure, or a mix of both.

I also believe travel should make a difference. That’s why I prioritise responsible operators, support local communities, and ensure every flight I book is carbon offset—so you can explore with peace of mind.
