Smaller Groups. Magnified Moments.

Devoted to providing a travel style for every type of traveller, Globus is excited to go small in a great, big way! Introducing Small Group Discovery tours! An entirely new type of tour, Globus Small Group Discovery tours were specifically designed for travelers who crave the intimacy of small group travel yet want worldwide experiences in epic proportions.

Orchestrating life-size moments in pared down settings, Globus Small Group Discovery tours afford you unique accommodations, exclusive excursions and special access throughout Europe, North America, Asia, Africa, South America and the South Pacific. From the top of the Swiss Alps down to the end of the world in Patagonia, Globus Small Group Discovery tours take you straight to the heart of your destination, warming yours every minute of the way.


Maximize Your Fun With a Minimum Number of Travelers.

With an average group size of just 15*, these new tours offer more freedom, more flexibility and more room to roam the ruins of Italy, the rainforests of Costa Rica, the pagodas of Japan and the preserves of Kenya. And it’s not just fewer guests, it’s more wonder, full of experiences like private wine tastings, cooking classes, art classes and quaint estates along the way.

In total, Globus is offering over 60 Small Group Discovery tours throughout Europe, North America and exotic destinations (from Kenya to Costa Rica to Cambodia and Australia to Japan). Together, with small group departure dates on tours worldwide, Globus will now offer the widest range of vacations catering to smaller groups.
