Tour Info
Why take this tour?
Family-friendly itinerary – Our itinerary is thoughtfully designed to be engaging for all ages, so no need to worry about how to keep guests of multiple ages engaged. Younger guests will be too busy and having too much fun to have time to drive each other crazy – and that’s a win-win for everyone!
Balance of free time and group time – We want you to go home refreshed and relaxed, so with a few hours of free time built into most day’s schedule, you will have plenty of time to explore on your own, shop, eat a snack, grab a coffee, or just take a nap without missing anything!
Small group sizes – Our group sizes are at least 8 adults with a maximum of 20 people. The average group size is 15 guests. These small groups allow us flexibility and the ability to see and do things bigger groups can’t. Plus, it’s easier to make new friends in a smaller group!
Tour-inclusive pricing – When we say tour-inclusive, we mean it. From your arrival to departure, the only expense during your time with us will be your souvenirs to remember your trip by. All tour pricing is clearly stated and you can see exactly what is included. The only thing not included is your transportation to and from the destination.
Great Tour Guarantee: We want you to go home with only positive memories and our trained professional guides and staff will go above and beyond to make that happen. If you are not satisfied with your tour for any reason, please contact us so we can make it right.
