Tours for small groups

Our small group tours are all accompanied by an expert lecturer, with twenty-two participants or fewer. There are now around two hundred small group holidays a year in nearly forty countries.

Our specialist itineraries are meticulously planned and rooted in knowledge of the destination and of the subject matter. All maintain a cultural focus – art, architecture, archaeology, gardens, literature, music, history, geology, gastronomy, even our walking tours.
