Small Groups, Bigger Experiences

Most of our tours consist of smaller groups than many of our competitors- typically being between 6 and 12 members. While this means our tours are a little more expensive, we believe the trade-off for this is more than worth it.

Smaller groups give us a number of advantages over our competitors:

  • Agility- tighter numbers mean that we can move about the city more easily and each member of the group can be guaranteed a front row seat to each point of interest
  • Speed- we can cover more ground, offering better value, by reducing the amount of time waiting for stragglers to catch up.
  • Group Cohesion- Many of our customers come away having not only learned more about the city but having made friends.
  • One on One time- smaller groups mean that our guide can take that bit longer with each member of the group to chat and answer any questions.
