Travel the planet with the flexibility and adventurous nature that a Collette small group tour provides

Collette’s small group explorations delve into the more adventurous side of travelers with professional tour guides ready to provide rewarding and enlightening experiences. With a range of 14–24 travelers, these immersive trips allow for a more in-depth look into the local culture and cuisine of each destination. Also, by traveling in a smaller group, this allows for a wider range of freedom to explore more unique sites—all while relaxing during downtime at hotels that wonderfully capture the local scene.

Why book a small group exploration tour?

Collette tours are guided by knowledgeable and experienced guides and each tour option possesses various destinations for groups to choose from. Small group tour explorations offer more than just a tour, they engage groups in enriching and memorable cultural experiences. With less people on board, no one will feel as though they are simply blending in with a crowd. This allows everyone the feeling of playing an important role in the overall cultural experience.
