Is it safer to travel with a tour group?

Small group travel can offer certain safety advantages compared to traveling alone, particularly in unfamiliar or remote destinations. Our small tour groups have experienced guides who are familiar with local customs, language, and potential safety risks, which can help mitigate potential dangers. Our guides are there to support and provide assistance every step of the way.

Is a small group tour worth it?

Small group trips offer a hassle-free travel option that can save you time and money in the long run. Take advantage of Exodus’ over 50 years of expertise and embark on a meticulously crafted itinerary guided by an expert local who can enhance your experience with their extensive knowledge of the history, culture, language, wildlife, terrain, and cuisine of the area.

FAQs on Small Group Tours

What is a small group tour?

Exodus’ small group tours are guided travel experiences with a limited number of participants, usually between 8 and 16 individuals. They are tours that offer a more intimate and personalized experience, allowing travelers to interact closely with their guide and fellow participants while immersing themselves into their destination and venturing beyond the typical tourist track. Our small group tours are specialized to focus on specific interests and activities, including cultural exploration, wildlife experiences, hiking, and cycling. Each tour provides a balance between organized activities and free time for independent exploration, catering to travelers who seek a more immersive and authentic travel experience.

Is it better to choose a guided tour?

Guided tours offer the convenience of having all logistics and planning taken care of, along with the expertise of a knowledgeable guide who can provide insights and context about the destination. They can also be a great option for travelers who prefer a structured itinerary and enjoy the social aspect of traveling with a group. Our award-winning guides are expert locals with a diverse array of expertise who are often called out in reviews as being a highlight of the experience.

Your guide is not just a source of information but also a trusted companion who understands the destination intimately. They provide support, answer questions, and offer valuable insights into the local culture, customs, and hidden gems. With their expertise, you can navigate unfamiliar territories with confidence, knowing that you have a knowledgeable local guide leading the way.

How should I prepare for my small group tour?

Once you’ve booked your tour, take a look at your trip notes for all the information you’ll need to prepare, including packing information, visa requirements, and more. If you’re embarking on a hiking or cycling tour, check the activity rating of the tour and use our fitness guides to prepare yourself physically. Feel free to reach out to our travel specialists if you have any questions along the way!

Can I join a small group tour solo?

Traveling solo? A small group tour is the perfect solution for solo travelers seeking a balance between independence and companionship. Whether you’re a seasoned solo traveler or trying it out for the first time, joining a small group tour ensures you won’t be alone on your journey.

Being part of a small group ensures you have a support system throughout your travels. From sharing meals and discussing daily adventures to exploring landmarks together, you’ll forge connections and create lasting memories with your fellow travelers. Together, you’ll navigate bustling markets, embark on thrilling excursions, and revel in the beauty of new landscapes, all while building friendships that may last long after the journey ends.

How many people are in a small group tour?

Our tours usually include 8-16 travelers. By keeping the group small, we ensure a personalized and intimate tour that allows every voice to be heard and gives everyone the opportunity to interact directly with the expert local guide. It also allows us to visit destinations beyond the typical tourist spots, hidden gems that would be overwhelmed by large tour buses and over tourism. Avoid the risk of increasing over-tourism and making a negative impact on these magical places by sticking to a small group tour dedicated to ensuring a positive experience for both you and the local communities and environments that you are visiting.
