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.

What our clients are saying about their small group touring experiences
This tour was from Uluru to Alice Springs over 7 days. Our tour guide/driver, Geery was an amazing guy whose knowledge and lifetime experience in the area gave us an insight into life in the region. Uluru was one place I have always wanted to visit and getting up close to the rock was a great experience. Accommodation and the meals at Sails was superb. read more We then had a couple of days at Kings Canyon before moving onto Alice and spending the day walking through the MacDonnell Ranges. Great experience walking into Simpson's Gap and Standley Chasm. Our last night was spent at the Outback Bush BBQ, a great way to end the tour. Thank you to Hannah from Global Journeys for organising this tour for me.

This was our 9th trip via Global Journeys and once again Georgie did a fantastic job taking care of our tour arrangements. This latest Japan tour with Bunniks was our first with them and we found the care and organisation by our friendly tour guide Eiko to be excellent. The accommodation sites were very convenient to all facilities and were top quality read more hotels. All travelling arrangements throughout our journey, which included 4 bullet train trips, were timely, comfortable and well organised by Eiko.
We enjoyed the many cultural activities which were fun to do with everyone being hands on and enjoying the experiences. The large crowds at some places took a bit off a shine of 1 or 2 particular visits however overall were very happy visiting all the sites on our itinerary. We had a wonderfull small group who mixed well and made our trip enjoyable. Would recommend travelling again with Bunnik.

Intro Travel was a good operator though the third party scheduling company had issues. The tour start and end days made the actual activities only last for 7 days as the tour group going on to the South Island left at 6am on Day 9.

My first time in Japan and traveling with a group. Our guide Toshi was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. It is a good tour to get some first impressions of Japan. Despite being advertised as a tour requiring a certain fitness level, we didn’t explore some of the sights that required climbing stairs and took public transport where we could have walked.
Taste of Portugal - April 4-11th Exodus Guide Carla Costa
Highlights of Portugal
Richard and Janet, CT, United States, Apr 2026
In general we had a great time on this tour. Our guide, Carla Costa was enthusiastic, passionate, and a good leader. She did a nice job managing and accommodating the different needs of the various group members. She also did a good job explaining the history and culture of Portugal. However, I would have preferred a bit less time visiting the churches read more and instead have an opportunity in Lisbon particularly to visit the world-class aquarium or a museum. The food in general was good, given that this was somewhat of a budget tour. Also, in actuality there was less free time than the published itinerary. While most of the hotels were good, I was disappointed with the location of the hotel in Porto and in Lisbon both being quite a ways away from tourist attractions and most restaurants.
