Bunnik Tours
Bunnik Tours is a family business with a focus on crafting itineraries that really get to the heart of all that a destination has to offer through a balance more of organised sightseeing, special local experiences and time for independent exploration. We know that some of the best experiences are when you wander away from the group and make your own discoveries.

In creating our small group tours, we are driven by two guiding principles. First, everything we do is about your experience, which is why we only run tours with a maximum of 20 people – that’s less time waiting, more time exploring. Second, when done properly, tourism can be an incredible force for good that generates economic and social benefits in the places we visit.

What our clients are saying about their experiences travelling the world on a 4 Star tour
Scotland Country Roads Country Roads of Scotland , NS, Canada, May 2026
This was a very good bus trip, and we particularly enjoyed travelling by ferry to the Orkney Islands. It is something not normally included in many Scotland trips. The sites there- Italian Chapel, Ring of Brogdar, Skara Brae and Skaile House were particularly interesting. Ethan Battison helped us tremendously in planning this trip and we highly recommend him.
Just returned from this fantastic Globus Alaskan tour! Would highly recommend this tour for it's beauty!! Spectacular Alaska! , SA, Australia, May 2026
If you don't mind early morning starts...this is the tour for you! Globus never disappoint with engaging and insightful tour directors, and skilled personal coach drivers! This tour was no exception. The included dinners and excursions were always a good experience. For travellers who yearn for the last frontier, this is the tour for you!!
Best of Germany and Austria Best of Germany and Austria , AB, Canada, May 2026
Some of the hotels were certainly not as good as we thought they should be. There were several extra excursions and this were done during the day. I think they should be at night and use the day to show the people around. We were also dropped off at the city centre and given 2-3 to shop when we should have been taken to see sights. It was disappointing.
Amazing Tuscan Adventure Tuscan & Umbrian Countryside , PA, United States, May 2026
We booked this tour because it had all the areas of Umbria and Tuscany that we wanted to visit. Collette is an excellent company, and we thought that every detail was well planned. We definitely got the experience we desired.
Good geographic coverage but some disappointments. Best of France , VIC, Australia, May 2026
This is a whirlwind tour, designed to allow you to get around France in 2 weeks. The guide was not the best. The hotels were good but not always well located. The included dinners served i edible rubber chicken, with the exception of the wonderful farewell dinner in Paris. This tour has many optional tours that are costly. If this is Trafalgur's new read more business model I will in future prefer Globus which offers more inclusions and a transparent offering.
14 Day Trafalgar Tour of Ireland   Amazing Ireland , NSW, Australia, May 2026
Absolutely no complaints with our fabulous Trafalgar 14-day tour of Ireland. Staying two nights at each accommodation stop provided added comfort to what was still a busy schedule. Grace at Global Journeys her expertly made our bookings, was always readily available, and I recommend this travel company.
