Small Group Tours
Small group tours allow you to travel with likeminded travellers, and with a maximum group size of 24, you'll have the opportunity for a more in depth and intimate touring experience. Visit places that larger coach groups can't, stay in boutique accommodation, immerse yourself in the culture, and enjoy authentic local interaction. Get off the beaten track and truly under the skin of a destination.

Discover Iceland

Selvi, NSW, Australia, Jun 2026
Thank you Georgie for recommending Bunnik tours. Fantastic tour, well organised and packed with many activities and attractions. Iceland has so much beauty and Bunnik have have arranged a tour that covered the mail attractions of the island. The tour director and coach driver were fantastic. I have already submitted a review to Bunnik. Everyday was read more different and the attractions seem to just get better every day. Thanks again Georgie for arranging this tour.
AAT Kings itinerary for this outback tour was thoughtfully planned. There were many opportunities to learn about Aboriginal culture and view spectacular scenery. We enjoyed getting to know our fellow travellers. Having some evenings free to dine without the group was appreciated. Highlights included "Under a Desert Moon", Field of Light Sunrise and read more Uluru Barbecue with star gazing. Walks along the creek bed at Kings Canyon, Kata Tjuta exploration, around base of Uluru and at Simpsons Gap provided ample photo opportunities. Accommodation at the three resorts was spacious and meals high quality.
Bus drivers/tour guides all knowledgeable. Perfect weather in early June for travel with warm days and no rain.

Great time
Secrets of Puglia
Richard and Kerrie, NSW, Australia, Jun 2026
We had a great time lots of interesting sights and lots of laughs. We met some lovely fellow travellers whom I’m sure we will keep in touch with. Transport very comfortable and accomodation very good. Tracy did everything she could have to keep us fully informed and will definitely call again if we travel for a 3rd time with Backroads.
Fantastic APT trip through The Kimberley & The Top End
Kimberley and Top End
Derek and Alison , New Zealand, Jun 2026
We booked our APT Tour using Global Journeys (Hannah). We had a fantastic time 10/10. 100% met (or actually exceeded) our expectations. Booking process was easy and Hannah helped us manage the process smoothly and always replied quickly to our queries. Trip itself was holiday of a lifetime. 20 of us in the group and we all became 'mates' very quickly. read more Driver / Tour guide Leigh was totally amazing, great personality, unbelievable knowledge and organised everything perfectly.
Highlights?? there are too many to mention, but helicopter ride over the Bunge Bungles would be in the top five. Walk to Mitchell Falls, tour through Arnhem Land / Kakadu National Park, huge selection of Aboriginal rock art to view, Emma Groge walk, numerous amazing swimming spots such as Zebedee Springs are just a few that come to mind. Accommodation at APT Wilderness Lodges (ensuite glamping) and the cuisine we were served was also another definite highlight. Only downside is that, due to the distances that need to be covered, we spent an average of five hours on the (very comfortable, with Starlink) 4WD bus and also this meant lots of early starts each day eg. breakfast at 6am for 6.45am departure. As long as you can handle this I say go for it, you will NOT be disappointed.

Amazing Tuscan Adventure
Tuscan & Umbrian Countryside
Katie and John, 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.
Enjoyable trip
Best of Mexico
Ann, SA, Australia, May 2026
We have had a great time, covering a big distance from Mexico city to Playa Del Carmen. We have has a deep dive into mexoamerican culture, which was amazing. We also enjoyed their arts and crafts. Local food is so delicious! There were several long days, and windy road didn’t make it easy, especially in a 12 seater van. But our fellow travellers companionship read more did make our trip much more enjoyable.
