What's Trending? Triple S: Smaller, Safer, Sustainable
The way we travel is changing with many unexpected positives.

To lower the risk of infection while travelling, small group tours are a way to go within a "bubble" of people. Everyone on the trips is pre-screened. Tour operations also have new procedures to keep the risk of new infections at a minimum while travelling. Groups are smaller, now averaging less than 10 people and protocols are in place to assist any guests who might become ill.

Groups will be taking more private transportation or exclusive charters. For example, small small ship cruising offers you a whole new perspective on travel while really lowering the exposure high numbers of people.

And more people are booking private vacations, transfers and tours. This is actually a cost effective way to have more fun while you travel.

Smaller groups are also much more welcome at destinations too. Fewer people, less crowds, upgraded service.

Unique Vacation Getaways-Smaller Resorts

All inclusive resort packages have great price points and we have the best of the best.

But many people today are trying smaller more personalised hotels, villas, healthy ecolodges and resorts and other specialised services that appeal to their interests. For example many people love to snorkel. Or want to try birding or surfing or practise photography or improve wellness. There are better choicels available than the high volume all-inclusive packages. See custom vacations.

Cultural Travel Experiences

We have curated the very best cultural experiences with our select suppliers. Call us for a consultation. You'll be happily surprised by what you can now do as a part of a small group. There are also great tours for solo travellers in private rooms with reduced or no single supplements.
