Over a third of our guests travel on their own, so you’ll fit right in. In your small group (just 10 -12 guests on average), we typically have a mix of solo travelers, couples, and friends or family members traveling together. If you are like many of our guests traveling solo and prefer a room to yourself, you’ll find our single supplements are among the lowest in the industry.

Many guests on our walking, family and culinary tours are very experienced independent travelers. “I’m tired of handling all the logistics” is the reason many of them cite for traveling with Classic Journeys. If you have any of those missed-train, lost-reservation, all-the-museums-were-closed stories, you’ll appreciate what a pleasure it is to offload the details to us. Likewise, if you crave cultural interactions with the locals, you’re also well suited to a Classic Journey. Our local guides get you into private homes, workshops, villages, restaurants and all kinds of cultural events that simply aren’t open or accessible to other travelers. We also understand that you don’t want to be part of a flock of tourists following a red umbrella. Not to worry. With just an average of 10-12 guests per departure, you have a very personal experience that just happens to be hassle-free.

Want to arrange a private tour for your family, friends or business or alumni organization? We’ll be glad to help—by creating a special edition of a tour you see on our website, or a totally unique itinerary based on the destinations and activities you want to include. Please call us at 800-200-3887 or email us with your wish list and let us help you plan an unforgettable vacation. Learn more about our private journeys, including ideas you can use from past guests »
