Private Tours - How does it work?

To book a private departure of one of our "regular tours," we require a per-person supplement for groups of fewer than 8 participants. This supplement decreases as your group size increases, starting at a higher rate for two people (we know—it stings, sorry!) and becoming minimal by six participants. Once your group reaches 7 people, the supplement is almost negligible, and for groups of 8 or more, no supplement applies.

Why the Supplement?

Our tours are priced based on the expectation of 8 or more participants. When a group of fewer than 8 requests a private departure, we’re unable to fill the remaining spots, which impacts our pricing structure. The supplement helps cover the gap to align our costs with the smaller group size.

Here’s the breakdown:

  • 2 participants: Supplement = 30% of the published tour price per person.
  • 3–4 participants: Supplement = 20% of the published tour price per person.
  • 5–6 participants: Supplement = 15% of the published tour price per person.
  • 7 participants: Supplement = 10% of the published tour price per person.
  • 8–14 participants: No supplement—pay the published price.

Hotel Upgrades

Many of our tours offer the option to upgrade your accommodations. If you choose to upgrade, we’ll provide you with the cost difference, which is added to your final invoice. We don’t charge extra fees or add margins to the upgrade cost—it’s entirely up to you. Please note that upgrades are subject to availability.
